make[2]: *** No rule to make target `-L/usr/local/opt/freetype/lib', needed
by `libinterp/dldfcn/__delaunayn__.la'. Stop.
I am getting the same failure when building from the head of dev (getting
the source from the Mercurial repository). I am building under Homebrew at
the default location, so I don't think your non-default location is an
issue.
... No rule to make target `-L/usr/local/opt/freetype/lib' ...
This sounds to me like an issue with generation of the Makefile.
'-L/usr/local/opt/freetype/lib' is not a valid target; it's a build option.
So it shouldn't show up in the target dependencies part of a Makefile.
Here's the relevant Makefile excerpt from my generated Makefile:
libinterp/dldfcn/__delaunayn__.la:
$(libinterp_dldfcn___delaunayn___la_OBJECTS)
$(libinterp_dldfcn___delaunayn___la_DEPENDENCIES)

It seems to me that OCT_LINK_DEPS and DLD_LIBOCTINTERP_LIBADD should not be
making their way in to things that are going to appear as dependencies.
Perhaps the "libinterp_dldfcn___delaunayn___la_DEPENDENCIES =
$(DLD_LIBOCTINTERP_LIBADD)" is in error?
The addition of DLD_LIBOCTINTERP_LIBADD looks like it happened in Revision
25474 on 6/14, which is consistent with 4.4.0 building but it breaking for
us now.
Perhaps this line in libinterp/dldfcn/config-module.awk is the issue, and it
should be something separate like DLD_LIBOCTINTERP_DEPENDENCIES instead?
printf ("%%canon_reldir%%_%s_la_DEPENDENCIES =
$(DLD_LIBOCTINTERP_LIBADD)\n",
basename);
