Re: [Fink-devel] building The GIMP 2.0pre1

[Todd Heidesch]

Oh, thanks... I guess I should have examined the freetype2 package more 
closely. I got the GIMP 2.0pre1 built with a much-modified info file 
after a few trial runs, except that I had to do a hack patch for 
fontconfig. The configure script says that it needs fontconfig 2.2.0 or 
greater (don't quote me on specific numbers here), which is the version 
in Apple's X11 IIRC, and it always detects 1.0.4 instead, so I modified 
the configure script to look for 1.0.0 or greater. I don't know an 
easier way to fix it, but the GIMP 2 works great in any case. It takes 
a little over an hour to compile on a 1 GHz G4.

supposed to be in Apple's X11? The freetype2 description says:
The freetype2 package now exists only for compatibility with older

 packages.  Developers should use the freetype that is part of 
XFree86
 for new packages.
You don't say which version of freetype2 you are talking about. In the 
description of the version in 10.3/unstable it says further on:

For packages that need freetype2 version 2.1.3 or newer, there is now
a freetype2-dev splitoff. For this to work, you need to make sure that
configure finds the freetype-config script in %p/lib/freetype2/bin
The install script for freetype2 moves lib/libfreetype.la into a 
lib/freetype2/ directory, but that doesn't get installed from %i into 
%p so there appears to be a problem with that package.
It gets installed into %p when you install the freetype2-dev splitoff. 
I can't comment on what is necessary for gimp, haven't looked at it.
