1 When I'm attempting to build seemingly any package that needs
2 libfreetype I get these errors at the bottom of the build:
3
4 # emerge libwnck
5 Calculating dependencies ...done!
6 >>> emerge x11-libs/libwnck-0.17 to /

10 /usr/lib/libpangoxft-1.0.so: undefined reference to `FT_Seek_Stream'
11 /usr/lib/libpangoxft-1.0.so: undefined reference to `FT_Get_Short'
12 /usr/lib/libpangoxft-1.0.so: undefined reference to `FT_Forget_Frame'

14 /usr/lib/libpangoxft-1.0.so: undefined reference to `FT_Get_Long'

24 I found the symbolds:
25
26 nm /usr/X11R6/lib/libfreetype.a | egrep 'FT_(Seek_Stream|Get_Short)'
27
28 00005068 T FT_Get_Short
29 0000511c T FT_Get_ShortLE
30 00004e44 T FT_Seek_Stream

32 This is obviously keeping me from building gnome and lots and lots
33 of other packages :) I currently have freetype-2.0.9 and
34 freetype-2.1.2-r1 installed. I've tried uninstalling the 2.0.9
35 version and reinstalling both versions and I still get the
36 exact same build error on other packages. Anybody have any idea
37 whats causing this? The only way I've found to fix the packages
38 that are blowing up is to manually add /usr/X11R6/lib/libfreetype.a
39 to the end of the final gcc line and then to emerge -i the package
40 to insert a stub so that portage knows its installed.
