[mapserver-dev] Question configuring mapserver for fribidi2

[Stephen Woodbridge]

Hi all,

I have run into a catch 22,

mapserver expects

--with-fribidi-config=yes
--with-fribidi-config=/path/to/fribidi-config

BUT the fribidi2 download does not appear to build one!

Anyone go any ideas?

-Steve W

wget http://fribidi.org/download/fribidi-0.19.1.tar.gz
tar xzf fribidi-0.19.1.tar.gz
cd fribidi-0.19.1
./configure
make
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig

cd ../mapserver-svn/mapserver

./configure \
   --enable-ignore-missing-data \
   --enable-debug \
   --with-httpd=/usr/sbin/apache \
   --with-proj=/usr \
   --with-agg=/u/software/agg-2.4 \
   --with-fribidi-config=yes \
   --with-gd \
   --with-gdal \
   --with-freetype \
   --with-postgis \
   --without-tiff \
   --with-wmsclient \
   --with-ogr \
   --with-wfs

...

checking if FriBidi support requested... yes
checking for fribidi-config... no

...

MapServer is now configured for
