Hi all,
Question about the fontconfig programs now being needed by some programs. The latest Gimp build, 1.3.20 complains about fontconfig when trying to start with the standard XFree86 files installed. Although XFree86 includes fontconfig, programs like Gimp are not seeing that without having the fontconfig program installed separate from the XFree86. Correct me if my logic or thoughts are wrong, please.
Now I have the fontconfig rpms, but when trying to install them, of course, XFree86 complains, XFree86-devel complains, xf86tools and XFree86-libs.
<snip> Is this the reason why every time I try and start the new gimp it segfaults when it tries to initialize the fonts??? I got it to compile without errors but it will not start. Just curious. -- Marshall "Nothing is impossible, we just do not have all the anwsers to make the impossible, possible."
