I understand that. But still, managing source builds is a lot of
work when multiplied by 10+, even when the software is "done". I
don't want to have to build it even once. Right now, I can install
many, many packages using Fink/apt-get/yum with basically one
command: "fink install ..." or "apt-get install ..." or "yum
install ..."

Hey Hans,
I think Johannes's real argument is that FTGL is "done" and is
probably
not going to change at all anymore. Due to this it takes less time to
build the FTGL static libs on each platform than it is to make FTGL
play
nice in the autobuild system, when the sources will not change. Of
course bugs *could* come up though...
Seems like freetype2 compiles fine from the cmd line for all
platforms.
So whats the next step?

stuff and
build it from source.
