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. Note that autogen.sh also sets up proper file permissions for the configure and auxiliary scripts. Note that a very common problem is that the 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' What this really means that your version of Automake 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). --- end of README.CVS ---
