[Mapserver-users] mapscript compiling

[Michael Schulz]

Hi Sven,

i think you only need one of those: -lfreetype (freetype 2.0.x) or -lttf
(freetype 1.3.x).
I am not sure where this comes together, but with mapserver configure options
you can determine which freetype lib to use. This, i guess, should be the same
that you use for compiling the gd-lib.
It could also be that you only have to disable the 'ttf' entry in the
libraries-list of the setup.py script.

HTH, Michael
