[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #54235] problems building Octave on Solaris

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #164, bug #54235 (project octave):

I think my analysis is correct.  I altered configure.ac to fail the version
check


    if test "$ac_status" = 0; then
      AC_MSG_RESULT(yes)
      AC_DEFINE(HAVE_FREETYPE, 1, [Define to 1 if Freetype is available.])


I know the else branch is taken because I get the warning message


warn_freetype="FreeType library >= 9.03 not found.  OpenGL graphics will not
be fully functional."


But, at the summary at the end of configure I see


  fontconfig CPPFLAGS:           -I/usr/include/freetype2
  fontconfig libraries:          -lfontconfig -lfreetype
  FreeType2 CPPFLAGS:            
  FreeType2 libraries:           -lfreetype


Octave is linking in freetype even though it isn't really available.  On the
other hand, If I configure using '--without-freetype' then the summary is


  fontconfig CPPFLAGS:           -I/usr/include/freetype2
  fontconfig libraries:          -lfontconfig -lfreetype
  FreeType2 CPPFLAGS:            
  FreeType2 libraries:
