Hi Valery:

For the 2.5 agg development package on Debian testing, I get the following
result:

ir...@raven> dpkg --listfiles libagg-dev |grep agg_font_freetype.h
/usr/include/agg2/agg_font_freetype.h

I also notice there is a libaggfontfreetype.a library which I assume
from the name is associated with that header.

My guess is AltLinux has just not configured a complete version of libagg
for the binary version of that library that they provide. libagg does
produce some outstanding looking results for wxwidgets. So if you have an
interest in wxwidgets, then it might be worthwhile for you to configure and
build your own libagg version that does not have the AltLinux limitation.
But that is probably a lot of work so just using the -DHAVE_AGG=OFF option
and accepting poor-looking wxwidgets results as a result may be the better
choice if you don't have much interest in wxwidgets.
