Yes, by installing an extra freetype2-2.1.3 package ;-) I was hoping for something a little smaller, like one or two *.c files from freetype that one could compile together with scribus. What I am actually doing in Fink now is to compile scribus with the freetype from X11 up to the end, and only in the final linking command where the scribus executable is created, I link to the libfreetype from freetype2-2.1.3. The fact that this is working at all proves that there are no big incompatibilities between the two freetype versions, no API changes, just some function implementations that are fixed. -- Martin
