I found the file ft2build.h in ~/freebin/include. How shall I tell fontconfig that to search for these freetype include files in this particular directory?

I configured fontconfig (./configure --prefix=/home/mmahmudi/fontbin/

tried to make. This is the error I get:

Can anybody tell me, what is wrong? How shall I proceed?

Dear all While trying to install fontconfig-2.2.1 (./configure) I get the following error: configure: error: You must have freetype installed; see http://www.freetype.org/ So I installed freetype locally to ~/freebin and set my PATH to ~/freebin/bin and LD_LIBRARY_PATH to ~/freebin/lib. After a recompilation of fonconfig I get the same error. Can anybody tell me what else I have to do to have fontconfig installed?
