Yes, someone already posted that link. > I'm afraid I don't know how to do that.

The issue with autotools is that many projects depend on a specific version of it, and it's really difficult to install that specific version if your system doesn't have it, because autotools has a lot of external dependencies. CMake is genuinely cross-platform and very well self-contained, meaning that it's easy to install anywhere. However, it's not as hackable as autotools, meaning that if you discover an issue with it, it can sometimes be very difficult to work around. > I think the link above explains that we're actually supposed to link against > fontconfig explicitly, in all cases.

Specifically, Mac and Windows builds. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF email is sponsosred by: Try Windows Azure free for 90 days Click Here http://p.sf.net/sfu/sfd2d-msazure _______________________________________________ Tigervnc-devel mailing list Tigervnc-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/tigervnc-devel
