AW: [Freetype] Installing with Jam

[MDowling]

Don't bother with jam and it's ilk; use a decent, standardised
make utility, or else GNU make, which is a de facto standard.

But yes, simply copy the libraries to some library directory.
Make sure that this directory in in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH; usually
/usr/local/lib can found regardless od this environment variable's
value.

Cheers,

Betreff: [Freetype] Installing with Jam


Dear Freetype Users:

I'm trying to install FreeType 2.0.5 on a NetBSD/i386 1.5.2 machine, 
and seem to be missing something obvious.  The INSTALL file says the 
preferred method is to use Jam, so I built that from source without 
any problems, then executed

% jam

which produced objs/libfreetype.a.  However, the instructions are 
silent on how to then install this library.  Is it just a matter of 
copying it to /usr/local/lib and setting its owner:group and mode to 
appropriate values?

I also attempted to build a shared library as per the instructions in 
INSTALL (after installing libtool version 1.4.2).  I'll append the 
results of this attempt to this message.  Could you tell me what's 
gone wrong (and in a nutshell, why shared libraries are preferrable 
to static ones), please?


Ray
