| 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). |
