Hi all,
I ran into a couple of issues with the freetype2 build and the
ft2demos build for unix. This happens on Tru64 UNIX.
Not finding install-sh: I have to move builds/unix/install-sh to the
main freetype2 directory and chmod 775 on it before the install will
work. I believe that DEC supplies a BSD compatible install, but one
has to set the path to it before configuring...
When building the ft2demos, I do not get a "shared" binary, in the
sense that the .so file is dynamically linked. I am not sure (just
yet) why this is happening. The binaries in bin do work, it is just
that they are not the type of binaries I was expecting, especially
since the binaries tucked away in bin/.lib are dynamically linked
binaries.
I have reported this to the libtool people, but it hasn't been fixed
yet: when running gmake for configuration, supply this
NM="/usr/bin/nm -B"
to the arguments of gmake. Otherwise, the libtool configuration fails
on the tests for parsing nm output. Not sure if thisis needed for the
freetype2 build, but since I am anal about things like this, I thought
I would report it.
Tom
