Istalling problems on MAC OS X 10.6

[Dark_Rudolf]

Hi together,

I'm facing some issues while installing Wine on my Mac Book.
I have the new MAC OS X 10.6.

Whenever I try to install Wine I'm getting the following error message:

checking for freetype-config... freetype-config
checking for -lfreetype... not found
configure: error: FreeType 32-bit development files not found. Fonts will not be built.
Use the --without-freetype option if you really want this.

Warning: the following items did not execute (for wine-devel): org.macports.activate org.macports.configure org.macports.build org.macports.destroot org.macports.install
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

I tried already one solution by compiling some single files with 32 bit parameter without success.

Is there anybody else facing this issue and has a solution?
Thanks for any hints.

There are at least two threads on building Wine with Snow Leopard (aka
MacOSX 10.6.0). You should contact the folks at MacPorts and advise
them that Wine has to be built as a 32 bit application, for now.

I still have a lot of 32 bit errors on packages I don't give a care about... but freetype I had to compile as 32 bit, and it works fine.

you can do it from Macports, just... when you open your terminal type in...

export CXXFLAGS="-arch i386 -m32"

then when you do a Macports install of freetype, it should do it with a 32bit compile.... its only good for that one session though, so you need to do the port install freetype right after it in the same terminal....

you could also download freetype source code and comile it yourself manually but Macports is easier, you just have to stop it from going 64 bit.

I'm getting this same thing - when I try to install Freetype I just get:

Code: Select all

--->  Cleaning freetype

Are you using MacPorts to install freetype, then the question has to go to the MacPorts folks.

If you are not, then this needs to go to the Freetype folks.

It is outside the scope of this project at this point.

Similar problem when installing freetype using homebrew:

See: http://askubuntu.com/questions/114460/h ... using-wine

Basically pc file was missing in pkgconfig, so:

Code: Select all

pkg-config --cflags freetype2

was returning error.

My solution:

Code: Select all

$ sudo ln -s /usr/local/Cellar/freetype/*/lib/pkgconfig/freetype2.pc /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/freetype2.pc

Yo guys.

Here's the solution if you're using macports:

Code: Select all

sudo port install freetype +universal

If that doesn't help, try installing libpng and bzip2 with +universal flag (but those should install automatically).
