Well, that's the thing. Static binaries are seldomly in a specific path. People put them wherever they want. Anyway, I understand that using the ENV var is the only way to manipulate the config path. But here's the next problem. a) fontconfig linked statically b) some binary using fontconfig also linked statically I use setenv in b) to set the FONTCONFIG_PATH variable, but a) ignores it. Any ideas? Cheers, Helmut _______________________________________________ Fontconfig mailing list Fontconfig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/fontconfig
