Fed up with Powerpoint's big files and
non-portability, I'm trying to install magicpoint on linux Redhat 7
I first installed freetype-2.1.0, and no libttf.a
was created, but libfreetype.a (instead I suppose. BTW, it
is at 2 different locations !?!).
./configure in the magicpoint directory tells me it
doesn't find the file libfreetype.a, (of course after
replacement of all occurrences of libttf.a into
libfreetype.a in the configure file).
What can the reason for this problem be ? (path
problem, problem with the fact that two different
.a files coexist, use of freetype2, or
anything else ?)
I'm not used to installing anything
but RPMs, so answers
should be for dummies !
All the best

?
