Thanks for the reply. I noticed the freetype binarys and had a suspicion this might be the problem. If I try to load them I get error messages about breaking dependancies with 2.0.3-7 which are of course already on the system. If I try to replace 2.0.3-7 I am warned about breaking dependencies with many applications. What is the recommended way to load the new freetype-2.0.9 files without breaking things? I would like to keep gtk1.2 on the system if possible. Thanks, Nick Soffe.
