I have most of the required libraries installing in $HOME Make sure that this problem is not due to a non-libtool issue. I believe that any 'pkg-config' support for FreeType is a relatively recent event. The traditional approach is obtain configuration parameters from a 'freetype-config' script. The 'freetype-config' script used will depend on the ordering of your PATH. Yes it is (and much awaited!), but I did use the freetype-config, and checked that it was the right one. Also, LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not a configure option. You should be using LDFLAGS to tell configure where to search for libraries. LD_LIBRARY_PATH has to do with locating libraries at run-time rather than at link-time. That was it, thank you! I'll make sure to add it to the Dia docs.

Running strace it appears that libtool looks for '../lib/libfreetype.la', but since this is run in the subdirectory 'app', it doesn't find it. It then proceeds to find it in /usr/lib, which unfortunately is a different libfreetype. ltmain.sh says that the version is 1.5.0a. I've been looking around for references to /usr/lib/libfreetype in the local .la files, but with no luck. Any ideas on how to proceed from here?
