[HarfBuzz] building on OSX with Homebrew testing

[Rolf Langenhuijzen]

Even though it looked dead easy to build Harfbuzz on OSX with Homebrew and Harfbuzz-from-GitHub I have some issues. I’m trying to make notes along the way until we have a working version. The goal is to build with cairo and also icu4c and gtk-doc in the end.

I have setup a clean OS X Mavericks on VMWare Fusion (I tried VirtualBox, didn’t work properly), then straight to terminal.

At the moment I have to feed ./configure paths where to find the brew libs (using things like CAIRO_CFLAGS and CAIRO_FT_LIBS etc.). But anyway, when I try to make, this is what I get and not sure what to do:

  CXX      libharfbuzz_la-hb-ft.lo
