freetype-2.1.5

[larry@…]

freetype-2 is included with xfree86. To go to newest version: --configure --prefix=/usr/X11R6 --datadir=/usr/share make make install

[tushar@…]

When freetype is added to the book, modify the XFree86 instructions to use the installed version of freetype instead of the version that comes with X.

Add the following lines to X host.def

echo "#define HasFreetype2 YES" >> config/cf/host.def echo "#define BuildFreetype2Library NO" >> config/cf/host.def echo "#define Freetype2Dir /usr/X11R6" >> config/cf/host.def

Also add the following instructions for freetype (as suggested by the README):

cp include/freetype/config/ftoption.h include/freetype/config/ftoption.h.orig sed -e 's:#undef TT_CONFIG_OPTION_BYTECODE_INTERPRETER:#define

TT_CONFIG_OPTION_BYTECODE_INTERPRETER:' include/freetype/config/ftoption.h.orig

include/freetype/config/ftoption.h

There was a new hint that was submitted recently that discusses this. So check it out before adding freetype.

Do we need to add freetype2 to the book or should it be included implicitly with XFree86? AFAIK, we need freetype 1.3 to make ttmkfdir, but the freetype module in X should be the freetype2.

Version Increment

[larry@…]

#define TT_CONFIG_OPTION_BYTECODE_INTERPRETER is now commented out instead of being #undef by default. Will still need to remove comment symbols to use.

[bdubbs@…]

Updated version and fixed install script.
