[Fontconfig] Build issue help needed...

[Philip Schneider]

Yes, thanks…that makes more sense…got misled by some random internet post :-(

In any case, since this now-correct usage lets me see more what is going on: I now see that the need for the freetype and expat lib specifications is that the default compilation target includes the creation of a number of command-line programs, which utilize those libs (as well as libfontconfig, I suppose :-) )

So, with the clarification/correction you provided, I am able to cleanly compile the entire thing (just had to add "-lz" to the FREETYPE_LIBS macro)

Again, thanks!
