However, you might not get expected results at runtime if you don't install them. Please do not report bugs with this package if you have not installed the recommended dependencies. User Notes: Install HarfBuzz by running the following commands: ./configure --prefix=/usr --with-gobject --with-graphite2 && make To test the results, issue: make check. Now, as the root user: make install --with-gobject: This switch enables building of the HarfBuzz GObject wrapper. Remove it if you did not install GLib. --with-graphite2: This switch enables Graphite2 support, which is required for building or with system harfbuzz. Installed Programs Installed Libraries Installed Directories hb-ot-shape-closure, hb-shape, hb-subset, and hb-view (only if cairo is installed) libharfbuzz.so, libharfbuzz-gobject.so, libharfbuzz-icu.so, and libharfbuzz-subset.so /usr/{include,lib/cmake,share/gtk-doc/html}/harfbuzz Short Descriptions hb-ot-shape-closure gives the set of characters contained in a string, represented as single characters and/or single character names. Example: hb-ot-shape-closure /usr/share/fonts/dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf "Hello World.". hb-ot-shape-closure hb-shape is used for the conversion of text strings into positioned glyphs. hb-shape hb-subset is used to create subsets of fonts, and display text using them. hb-subset hb-view displays a graphical view of a string shape using a particular font as a set of glyphs. The output format is automatically defined by the file extension, the supported ones being ansi/png/svg/pdf/ps/eps. For example: hb-view --output-file=hello.png /usr/share/fonts/dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf "Hello World.". hb-view libharfbuzz.so is the HarfBuzz text shaping library. libharfbuzz.so libharfbuzz-gobject.so provides GObject integration for the HarfBuzz text shaping library. libharfbuzz-gobject.so libharfbuzz-icu.so provides ICU integration for the HarfBuzz text shaping library. libharfbuzz-icu.so
