Hello, I have compiled and installed (almost) wine 0.9.24 within Mac OS X tiger 4.8 with X11 etc installed. The wine configure and compile steps complete without a warning/hitch etc. However, when I run wine <prog> I receive the following warning message -- Wine cannot find the FreeType font library. To enable Wine to use True Type fonts please install a version of FreeType greater than or equal to 2.0.5. http://www.freetype.org This message is repeated one more time. Wine does work (with strange results for some lettering!) I have previously installed FreeType 2.1.10 from DarwinPorts; it is used elsewhere currently. I have checked config.log and all the freetype activity seems to be directed to /opt/local/{lib,include,bin}; these are the directories utilized by DarwinPorts. What else do I have to do (modify the configure file?) so the wine executable locates the FreeType facilities? Many thanks in advance. Walt Burkhard
Hi, the configure scripts looks on mac only in the /usr/include folder. So make an symbolic link ln -s /opt/include/ft2 /usr/include/ft2 and all works fine.

Another option is to add the directory in which freetype is installed to your DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH: e.g. for bash, export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt... You may prefer to use the DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH instead; see the dyld man page for the difference. -Ojas
