I've had no luck compiling WMF-Thumbnail-Plugin for Konqueror from http://kde-apps.org/content/download.php?content=11404&id=1
The error reported when running make follows:

Apparently this is describing problems w/ freetype (a problem I've run into trying to compile programs in the past as well, most recently with GraphicsMagick). I'd appreciate pointers as to how to get this plugin installed, (and get freetype found when compiling in general) it would sure make those .wmf files littering one of my partitions allot more useful.
Just do what the error says. Edit /usr/include/libwmf/types.h, find the #include <freetype.h> and change it to #include <ft2build.h> #include FT_FREETYPE_H All apps that uses freetype will need a similar adjustment because of the changes made to freetype
