I run ftview and ftgrid quite regularly on fedora - they are in the "freetype-demo" package. If you are not too picky about using the latest versions, they'll do. Otherwise, actually trying to build the source rpm (use "dnf --srpm download freetype-demo" to get it) then "rpmbuild --rebuild <thesrpm>" would probably tell you what fedora devel packages you are missing.
Also, you might need to be using "gnome classic" (it is a session option below your login prompt") to be using X11 programs. Again, installing gnome-classic-session will probably bring in everything you need, if you do not have x11 already. The default gnome shell is wayland - I don't use it as it does not work well on my hardware. _______________________________________________ Freetype-devel mailing list Freetype-devel@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freetype-devel
