Hello Gimpers, Here is the correct way to do this. Do not change the configure script, do not change the make file. This information, and lots of other configuation options explained, can be found by adding the -h (help) option to the ./configure script invocation, although it is not quite specific about this exact option. Here is what to enter to compile pango with freetype support: ./configure --with-PACKAGE=pangoft2
The response that Sven gave me that it should find freetype was not the case on my system and must not be the case on some other sytems as well due to this being an option in the configuration script. You are now ready to compile pango with freetype support as required by gimp 1.3. I hope this helps, Brian > On 2003-05-30 at 1808.38 +0200, Sven Neumann typed this: > > Hi, > > > > Jos?
