I completely gave up trying to compile freetype 2.x into GD. However
I was able to successfully compile freetype 1.3 directly into PHP
which seems to work fine.
IE:
forget trying to use:
--enable-gd-native-ttf
instead:
--with-ttf=/usr/local/freetype/
which assumes you have freetype 1.3 installed to /usr/local/freetype
BTW - I have my own question. To restart apache at the moment I have to set
and export:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/freetype/lib/
Anyone know what I need to do to get this recognised by Apache internally.
( I am running Debian Linux "Potato" )
