Original thread subject line
[ft] Installation issue

Hello
I have followed advice about getting freetype 2.5.5
downloaded it and unpacked it

change shell to sh

MAKE=/usr/local/bin/make ./configure ran fine

Make did not

Here are the gory details:

# MAKE=/usr/local/bin/make ./configure

FreeType build system -- automatic system detection

The following settings are used:

  platform                    unix
  compiler                    cc
  configuration directory     ./builds/unix
  configuration rules         ./builds/unix/unix.mk

If this does not correspond to your system or settings please remove  
the file
`config.mk' from this directory then read the INSTALL file for help.

Otherwise, simply type `/usr/local/bin/make' again to build the library,
or `/usr/local/bin/make refdoc' to build the API reference (this needs  
python >= 2.6).

----------------------------------
annotated comment from me:
Is the above why make failed?
