Hi Steve,
I have good experience with this configuration:
1. Compiling gd 1.8.4. with freetype 1.2 (I had to edit makefile to ensure
the freetype 1.2) without make install.
2. Configuring and compiling mapserver with these options:
./configure --with-gd=static,/installs/gd-1.8.4 --with-ttf ...

Predmet: [mapserver-users] Compiling freetype
Good morning:
I'm getting the error: getSymbol(): Symbol definition error.
(FONT):(118)
My goal is to get rotating text to work and have downloaded the freetype
1.2 library and the gd-1.8.4 library.
It seems that this version of freetype does not make a libfreetype.a file
which is needed to make the symbols work in when compiling mapserver with gd
option.
I've searched the archives and help sites, but I'm missing something
here---
1. Download freetype 1.2 and compile (check)
2. Download gd-1.8.4 and compile with -libttf (check)
3. Download mapserver_3.5 and configure
./configure --with-gd=/installs/gd-1.8.4 (since gd is compiled with
freetype--though there's no libfreetype.a generated?? I don't need
to --with-freetype)
I guess my question is do what version of freetype do I need to make
libfreetype.a and do I really need that?
Thanks
