Re: [Freetype] 2.1.1 Mac OSX problem

[henry . maddocks]

I was using the standard freetype make system though a framework would 
be a VERY good idea. It should become part of the standard freetype 
package. If you need any help finishing this let me know.

I have reverted to 2.0.9 for the moment. 2.1 is the unstable branch so 
problems are to be expected.
