Re: [ft] Freetype2-dev package not found when crosscompiling

Hello,
I've been away for a few days but I am still stuck with this problem

The following lines in the qt project config file tell that qmake does use pkg-config to look up freetype2.

CONFIG += link_pkgconfig
PKGCONFIG += freetype2

Any ideas what else I could try or check?

Oh, considering that pkg-config returns the module number (the instead of abort),
pkg-config works correctly. So qmake might not use pkg-config to detect freetype2.
