I've rewritten the library detection in the `configure' script. From
the CHANGES files (not committed yet):
- All libraries FreeType depends on are now checked using the
`pkg-config' configuration files first, followed by alternative
methods.
- The new value `auto' for the various `--with-XXX' library
options (for example `--with-harfbuzz=auto') makes the
`configure' script automatically link to the libraries it finds.
This is now the default.
- In case FreeType's `configure' script can't find a library, you
can pass environment variables to circumvent pkg-config, and
those variables have been harmonized as a consequence of the
changes mentioned above:
LIBZ -> removed; use LIBZ_CFLAGS and LIBZ_LIBS
LIBBZ2 -> removed; use BZIP2_CFLAGS and BZIP2_LIBS
LIBPNG_LDFLAGS -> LIBPNG_LIBS
`./configure --help' shows all available environment variables.
- The `freetype-config' script now understands option `--static'
to emit static linking information.
Please test! I plan to make a new FreeType release very soon and
would be glad to get some feedback.
