With a great assist, I found and fixed the problem I was having with configure. Turns out I (inadvertantly) had two versions of libfreetype on the system, one in /usr/local/lib that I had put there, and one in /usr/X11R6/lib that XFree86 put there (that I wasn't expecting or thinking about).
In some way, this caused configure to do two things wrong: a. The construction of the LIBS value that was being passed to a gcc instruction to test for the presence and usefulness of libX11 wound up with -lX11 prior to any path (-L) value; and b. Two separate instances of libfreetype, and both of different versions, were being referenced in the linker flags. By simply eliminating one of the installed libs, the problem went away. jbh _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
