The CVS archive doesn't contain pre-built configuration scripts for UNIXish platforms. To generate them say sh autogen.sh which in turn depends on the following packages: automake (1.9.6) libtool (1.5.22) autoconf (2.59c) The versions given in parentheses are known to work. Newer versions should work too, of course. Note that autogen.sh also sets up proper file permissions for the `configure' and auxiliary scripts. A very common problem is that this script complains that the `aclocal' program doesn't accept a `--force' option: generating `configure.ac' running `aclocal -I . --force' aclocal: unrecognized option -- `--force' Try `aclocal --help' for more information. error while running `aclocal -I . --force' This means that your version of the automake package is too old. Please update it before trying to build FreeType. For static builds which don't use platform specific optimizations, no configure script is necessary at all; saying make setup ansi make should work on all platforms which have GNU make (or makepp). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Copyright 2005, 2006, 2007 by David Turner, Robert Wilhelm, and Werner Lemberg.
