I just read a couple of messages one of which was: http://mail.fontconfig.org/pipermail/fontconfig/2003-June/000487.html. If the problem is that I have an old version of freetype installed, could you display a list of dependencies on your web page and in the source distribution ? I'm going to install the current version of freetype so if this is the source of the problem, it will be solved.
