The good news. I built from cvs by deleting docs from makefile.am. fc-cache now works with the windows fonts directory. *.fon no longer cause seg. faults. Great work - 2.2 looks ready. But...the cvs mytery remains. 1. I do have docbook2html ( and docbook2txt and docbook2man. > >fonts-conf.5 is not in CVS and can only be built with the docbook tools, >so '--disable-doc' can't be used from CVS. Perhaps that should be fixed. > >The mystery here is that the configure script automatically selects >'--disable-doc' if it can't find docbook2html, and it appears that this is >happening on your sytem for some unknown reason. 2. So configure finds it. From configure.log: configure:9756: checking for docbook2html configure:9772: found /usr/bin/docbook2html configure:9783: result: yes configure:9966: creating ./config.status > >Can you look at 'config.log' to make sure it says: > > configure:6909: checking for docbook2html > >Then look in config.status for > > s%@HASDOCBOOK@%yes%g 3. config.status has: s,@HASDOCBOOK@,yes,;t t s,@ENABLE_DOCS_TRUE@,#,;t t s,@ENABLE_DOCS_FALSE@,,;t t s,@DOCDIR@,${datadir}/doc/fontconfig,;t t So it expects to build the docs, because it has docbook2*, but fails. FWIW, I also deleted docbook2html Which gave config.status: s,@HASDOCBOOK@,no,;t t s,@ENABLE_DOCS_TRUE@,#,;t t s,@ENABLE_DOCS_FALSE@,,;t t s,@DOCDIR@,${datadir}/doc/fontconfig,;t t which failed to build with the *same* problem. > >That'll give us a hint where the problem might lie. > >-keith > I hope it gives you some hint - I'm befuddled. In any event - congrats on 2.2 _________________________________________________________________ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN 8.
