The freetype support should be in svn, there is probably a problem in cmake downloading from the freetype link... I had problem and put a wget exe in the path, so cmake find it and use it to download, get it from:

wget:
html: http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/wget.htm
bin:  http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gnuwin32/wget-1.11.4-1-bin.zip
dep:  http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gnuwin32/wget-1.11.4-1-dep.zip

regarding curl, the latest distribution include cmake support, unfortunately it lacks install ... i made myself If you are interested, I can send you a readme to document my layout and the needed step to build deps and osg,
It would be useful also for myself.
If anyone else would be interested we could put it on the wiki once tested

Regards.
Luigi

I managed to let the jpg plugin work as suggested by Luigi, really thanks.

By the way, Luigi you talked about also cmakeports for curl and freetype, but they are not public available yet, am I wrong? Can you share the freetype port?

Thanks again for your help!
Regards.

    Not sure if this is the same problem:
    I had a somehow similar problem of deployment (plugin not loading
    in deployed machine WITHOUT redist)
    It has happened both on vs8 and vs9.
    I somehow solved the problem of osgdb_osg and ive plugins not
    loading by copying the needed msoft dlls and manifests in
    osgPlugins-2.9.6 (awful hack .... to be solved....)
    For other plugins, I compile my version of jpeg,curl and freetype
    into static lib from source using cmake via the cmakeports project

    http://code.google.com/p/cmakeports/

    So I do not need to use external dll that could have been built
    with  a different build chain.

    I do not think the  USE_3RDPARTY_BIN  is related, If I remeber
    well, it is just a hint on Cmake to search external libs in a side
    library...
    Nevertheless, you should be able to see which external libs have
    been got by using advanced view in the cmake gui

    Hope it helps

        Thank you for your help,
        I already tryed to set the notify level to debug and, as far
        as I understand, plugins are always discovered but the only
        error message I see is DynamicLibrary::fail loading "..." no
        further detail is provided.

        I just had to try to install the redistributables for Visual
        c++ 2005 SP1 on the deployment machine (even though I was
        providing my application with a manifest and corrensponding
        CRT), so I tried it but again this not solved the
        problem...actually on every deployment machine the
        installation of the redistributable looks not so 'polite'
        because it strarts but doesn't display a completion message,
        so I'm not so sure about a successful installation...

        Tried also the dependency walker tool on the target machine,
        and some DLL are not found but they are the same as the RGB
        plugin that works. The missing DLL is DWMAPI.DLL, don't know
        what it is for...

        Don't know if this could relate to this problem, but in CMake
        I see the USE_3RDPARTY_BIN set to ON by default...what does it
        mean?

        Thank you again...
        Kind regards,
        Alessandro
