    gbt+2 install problem

    hello ubuntu

    its my 2nd day, i tried to installed gtk+2 but i got problem ...

    root@babyubuntu:/home/babyubuntu/Mydocument/gtk+-2.0.3 #./configure --prefix=/usr

    ---- compile process ---

    checking for freetype-config... /usr/local/bin/freetype-config
    checking for FT_New_Face in -lfreetype... yes
    checking For sufficiently new FreeType (at least 2.0.1)... no
    configure: error: pangoxft Pango backend found but did not find freetype libraries

    root@babyubuntu:/home/babyubuntu/Mydocument/gtk+-2.0.3#

    configure: error: pangoxft Pango backend found but did not find freetype libraries

    <-- i thougt i have to install pangocft ... then i asked it to mr google and mr sourceforge... i got this file freetype-2.1.8.. than i tried to install it


    root@babyubuntu:/home/babyubuntu/Mydocument/freetype-2.1.8 # ./configure --prefix=/usr/

    FreeType build system -- automatic system detection

    The following settings are used:

    platform unix
    compiler cc
    configuration directory ./builds/unix
    configuration rules ./builds/unix/unix.mk

    If this does not correspond to your system or settings please remove the file
    `config.mk' from this directory then read the INSTALL file for help.

    Otherwise, simply type `make' again to build the library,
    or `make refdoc' to build the API reference (the latter needs python).

    make: Nothing to be done for `unix'.
    root@babyubuntu:/home/babyubuntu/Mydocument/freetype-2.1.8 #

    someone told me that i have to upgrade my freetype then i upgrade my freetype-2.1.8 --> freetype-2.1.10

    Otherwise, simply type `make' again to build the library,
    or `make refdoc' to build the API reference (the latter needs python). <-- basic this.. then i installed phyton..

    root@babyubuntu:/home/babyubuntu/Mydocument/freetype-2.1.10 # make refdoc
    ---- process ---
    root@babyubuntu:/home/babyubuntu/Mydocument/freetype-2.1.10 #make install
    -process---

    i instaled debian package too for freetype
    root@cupid:/home/cupid/Mydocument # dpkg -i libttf2_1.4pre.20030402-1.1_i386.deb
    Selecting previously deselected package libttf2.
    (Reading database ... 74134 files and directories currently installed.)
    Unpacking libttf2 (from libttf2_1.4pre.20030402-1.1_i386.deb) ...
    Setting up libttf2 (1.4pre.20030402-1.1) ...

    root@cupid:/home/cupid/Mydocument #

    its done... then i back at gtk+2..

    root@babyubuntu:/home/babyubuntu/Mydocument/gtk+-2.0.3 #./configure --prefix=/usr

    ---- compile process ---

    checking for freetype-config... /usr/local/bin/freetype-config
    checking for FT_New_Face in -lfreetype... yes
    checking For sufficiently new FreeType (at least 2.0.1)... no
    configure: error: pangoxft Pango backend found but did not find freetype libraries

    ./configure
    make
    make install

    I found it!
    Should edit file configure:
    add "#include <ft2build.h>" before "#include <freetype/freetype.h>"!
