New subject: [trinity-users] emerge qt-3.3.8d-r1 fails because of missing (?) xft

27 Sep 2014


      Hi list,
emerge @preserved-rebuild
tries to emerge dev-qt/qt-3.3.8d-r1, which fails because of missing
freetype.h
The log says
Xft auto-detection... (-L/usr/lib64)
  Found libXft.so in /usr/lib64
  Found libXft.so in /usr/lib
  Found X11/Xft/Xft.h in /usr/include
  Found Xft version 2.3.1
  Could not find freetype2/freetype/freetype.h anywhere in 
/usr/X11R6/include  /usr/include /include
Xft disabled.
Xft support cannot be enabled due to functionality tests!
 Turn on verbose messaging (-v) to ./configure to see the final report.
 If you believe this message is in error you may use the continue
 switch (-continue) to ./configure to continue.
 * ERROR: dev-qt/qt-3.3.8d-r1::trinity failed (configure phase):
 *   (no error message)
 *
media-libs/freetype 2.5.3-r1 is installed.
Any help appreciated
