Trouble compiling--unable to find freetype

[aw_wolfe1]

I have opensuse 11, 64bit. trying to compile wine 1.1.9, From previous info, I've been using the following....
---------------

./configure --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib --x-includes=/usr/include/X11/ --with-x --prefix=/usr

------------------------
I do have freetype2-64 and freetype2 dev 64 installed. I am hoping that the problem can be resolved with another syntax change to my configuration command above by pointing it to freetype2 (?-not sure proper syntax to try). If not correct way, what else do I need to do?

Thanks for any help!!!

You need the 32 bit libraries.

I also run OpenSuse 11.0 on a 64bit machine and I find that I need to set up links to many of the libraries so that wine can find them. I cannot remember doing libfreetype specifically, but Yast only installs libfreetype.so.6 which is a link and libfreetype.so.6.3.18 which is the library itself. (This is in /usr/lib). I think wine looks for libfreetype.so which is not there until I copy libfreetype.so.6 and paste it back calling it libfreetype.so. You then need to run ldconfig to make sure Linux notices that you have generated the file.
My guess is that OpenSuse handles this for me in /usr/lib64 but not in the 32 bit library.

Right, that's all described in the link above.

Thanks for that non-contribution Vitamin - I suggest you try reading the original post, your link and my post. The link does mention freetype2-devel-32bit which is not the package that Wine is looking for above. It does not mention libfreetype.so which wine configure is looking for above. In my case it finds libfreetype.so.6. Your link does mention some specific links that are needed but not this one.

Now, if you chose to be clever about whether this specific link was needed, you could be right, it might not be. But the list of needed links is not complete - at least on my system and it could help the OP to be aware of that.

Finally, Wine compiles perfectly well without freetype2-devel-32bit and runs very acceptably. At the moment there are dependancy problems with freetype2-devel-32bit within Yast and it is not installable. I'm sure that is system dependent and the OP might be able to install it perfectly well -but it also might not solve his problem if he did.

Now it is .

BTW you can edit that wiki too you know.
