Hi, I have already posted this question on gentoo-user whithout getting a response. I have looked deeper into it meanwhile, but I still seem to be missing something. Perhaps one of you can give me a hint.
What I want to do is make mod_php-4.3.3-r3 use freetype1 instead of freetype2, because the machine in question is a web server I want to run the Typo3 Content Management System on and the graphical buttons rendered by Typo3 just don't look as expected when using freetype2. Sure, I could configure and build mod_php manually, but I am interested in the gentoo-way of doing it. After reading the ebuild howto I tried to set EXTRA_ECONF="--without-freetype" before I ran emerge =mod_php-4.3.3-r3 again. This did not do the trick, because my extra option is not appended at the end of the list of configure options, as I would have expected, but inserted before all the standard options generated by the ebuild script. How are the configure options for a particular package generated, i.e is there a way of influencing what configure options a certain USE flag triggers for a particular package? Or am I completely on the wrong track? How would the problem described above be solved most elegantly?
