[Devel] A problem to compile freetype-2.1.4rc2

[address@hidden]

Hi,

I have just finished compilation of freetype-2.1.4rc2, but that was not very 
simple.
Indeed, I use a distribution linux 2.0.38 with a zlib installed under a 
nonofficial
tree structure Unix ( /mnt/part1/lib/zlib/include and /lib).

I have use a little shell script for to configure the compilation :
<c.sh>
#!/bin/sh

CPPFLAGS="-I/mnt/part1/lib/zlib/include"
LDFLAGS="-L/mnt/part1/lib/zlib/lib"

export CPPFLAGS
export LDFLAGS

./configure --prefix=/mnt/part1/lib/freetype/freetype-2.1.4rc2 --with-gnu-ld
----------------------------

Configure procedure works fine, with no problems but when i launch make it 
fails with :
.....
gcc -pedantic -ansi -I/mnt/part1/lib/src/freetype/freetype-2.1.4rc2/objs
-I/mnt/part1/lib/src/freetype/freetype-2.1.4rc2/builds/unix
-I/mnt/part1/lib/src/freetype/freetype-2.1.4rc2/include -c -Wall -g -O2
-DFT_CONFIG_OPTION_SYSTEM_ZLIB
/mnt/part1/lib/src/freetype/freetype-2.1.4rc2/src/gzip/ftgzip.c  -fPIC -DPIC -o
/mnt/part1/lib/src/freetype/freetype-2.1.4rc2/objs/.libs/ftgzip.lo
/mnt/part1/lib/src/freetype/freetype-2.1.4rc2/src/gzip/ftgzip.c:32: zlib.h: No 
such
file or directory
make: *** [/mnt/part1/lib/src/freetype/freetype-2.1.4rc2/objs/ftgzip.lo] Erreur 
1

-----------------------------
I have try to do the make in shell script to profit of my $CPPFLAGS but i have 
the same
problem.
I found a reference of my zlib in unix-cc.mk:LDFLAGS := 
-L/mnt/part1/lib/zlib/lib -lz
But nowhere a reference for my zlib include in mk files.
-----------------------------
I circumvented the problem with to add CC variable in my shell script with 

CC="gcc -I/mnt/part1/lib/zlib/include"
export CC

Then the configuration, compilation and the installation proceed without 
problems.

Perhaps a little problem in your compilation/installation procedure with libs 
which
aren't installed on conventional tree structure.
