The missing files are part of xfree. What does it say when you do ?
Where is your XftFreetype.h file? Is locate up-to-date (updatedb)? Do a | Code: | | locate XftFreetype.h |

The missing files are part of Xft, not Xfree. The missing library is Pango 1.2.
emerge -u pango should fix the pango problem. |

On my machine, rsync'ed yesterday, | Code: | | qpkg -fp Freetype.h |
reports x11-base/xfree and | Code: | | qpkg -l xfree|grep Freetype |
lists XftFreetype.h. Conversely, | Code: | | qpkg -l pango|grep Freetype |
is empty. Perhaps you have a nonstandard installation that puts this file in pango? |

Hi everyone,
I have an almost similar problem here but with gtk+. Basically what I'm trying to do is emerge -uD world, by the time it reaches to x11-libs/gtk+-2.4.1, it says:
| Code: | checking For sufficiently new FreeType (at least 2.0.1)... yes
configure: error: Pango 1.2.0 and Xft backend is required for x11 target
!!! ERROR: x11-libs/gtk+-2.4.1 failed.
!!! Function econf, Line 362, Exitcode 1
!!! econf failed
|
Reading through the thread, I tried:
| Code: | | qpkg -fp Freetype.h |
it gave no output.
I'm using X.org instead of xfree86.
so I tried:
| Code: | | qpkg -l xorg|grep Freetype |
and again it gave no results!
I would really appreciate any help...

| What does say? Looks like it still wants X11, not X.org. I have X.org and gtk+-2.4.1 and I do not have Freetype on my system anymore. So Freetype should not be required for gtk+ with X.org. |

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

I'm looking on my system and find the FreeType comes with xft: | Quote: | * x11-libs/xft [ Masked ]
Latest version available: 2.0.1-r2
Latest version installed: [ Not Installed ]
Size of downloaded files: 531 kB
Homepage: http://fontconfig.org/
Description: X FreeType library, also known as Xft2.0
License: fontconfig
|
The files I have include: | Quote: | | /usr/X11R6/lib/libXft.so.1.1 |
When I do an | Code: | | etcat belongs /usr/X11R6/lib/libXft.so.1.1 |
I get | Quote: | Searching for /usr/X11R6/lib/libXft.so.1.1 in * ...
app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-xlibs-1.0
x11-base/xorg-x11-6.7.0-r1 |
Why don't you compare your installation with this. Maybe Xft is missing. |
