Hello, I am trying to manually install gnome2.2 following the guide at http://www.karubik.de/gig/. I have had a lot of trouble installing gtk (the fourth package in the list), but it finally compiled after installing fontconfig and friends. I thought everything was going well after all when I started getting the following error everytime I try to open an application compiled against gnome 2: ** ERROR **: Failed to match any font. This could be due to a broken Xft configuration, or if you run XFree 4.1.0 due to a bug in libXrender. For more information about this, read http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=68030 aborting... Aborted I have read somewhere on the net that it could be fixed by doing: fc-cache -f but I can+t do that either: I get: fc-cache: relocation error: /usr/local/lib/libfontconfig.so.1: undefined symbol: FT_Get_PS_Font_Info And I get stuck. I don't have the slightest idea what is going wrong... Does anybody know how I can get out of this? In case it helps, I am usign mandrake 8.2, kernel 2.4.18. Regards.
