Thanks, Armin.

I have been expecting this failure since I discovered (Wayne did, IIRC) the first package to fail with new freetype. Since then I am disappointed because in all my attempts it does *not* fail. I cannot confirm the failure. Just built it again. What can we do to try to understand why it does not fail for me?

comment:2 by Fernando de Oliveira, 11 years ago

Just thought about another possibility.

Would it be reasonable to include the patch in the book with a comment "in case your build fails"?

According to ./configure --help, freetype is disabled by default unless you pass --enable-libfreetype. So the better possibility is "In case you are building with freetype support, apply this patch".
