Hi Bert,

Actually this was what I was about to ask you next;)

I made acinclude.m4:
PKG_CHECK_MODULES(FREETYPE,freetype2,,AC_PLUGIN_DISABLE)
AC_PLUGIN_DEFINE_UNQUOTED(FREETYPE_CFLAGS,$FREETYPE_CFLAGS)
AC_PLUGIN_DEFINE_UNQUOTED(FREETYPE_LIBS,$FREETYPE_LIBS)

and Makefile.inc:
XCPPFLAGS= [FREETYPE_CFLAGS]
XLDFLAGS=  [FREETYPE_LIBS]

in platforms/unix/plugins/FT2Plugin. I just did copy and paste from
RomePlugin (I'm curious why RomePlugin is here in olpc branch, but
this is a different topic).

But "[FREETYPE_CFLAGS]" was just copied to bld/FT2Plugin/Makefile
without substitution. I'm completely a beginner of autoconf, so could
give me a start point to learn about that? where did $FREETYPE_CFLAGS
come from, and how can I make it work?

Because freetype-config --cflags answers -I/usr/include/freetype2 but
tttables.h is /usr/include/freetype2/freetype.

FT2Plugin class >> declareCVarsIn:

cg addHeaderFile: '<ft2build.h>'.
cg addHeaderFile: '<tttables.h>'.
cg addHeaderFile: 'FT_FREETYPE_H'.
cg addHeaderFile: 'FT_OUTLINE_H'.
cg var: 'library' declareC: 'FT_Library library'.
cg var: 'errorCode' type: 'int'.

Thank you,
