[mapserver-users] truetype weirdness

[thorsten fischer]

Robert, Daniel,
(and: list :) ),

I have recompiled gd with some shared library magic, and also recompiled
mapserver with that, using my latest cvs checkout. The result is still
the same: error. See below for the layer from the mapfile that causes
the error, the error message itself, the mapserver version string and
the output of ldd (btw I believe that libcrypto and libresolv are part
of glibc; otherwise I would scratch my head even more than I do at the
moment). There is no other libgd installed on the system.

Reverting to freetype-1.3 does not fix the problem either btw. I tried
to track down the source of the error by removing parameters of the
label section - to no avail. Bitmap fonts still work fine.


<ServiceException>
msGetLabelSize(): TrueType Font error. Could not find/open font
