imlib2 won't emerge because it complains no freetype is available checking for TT_Init_FreeType in -lttf... no i have freetype 2.1.3 installed. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
do you have freetype 1 installed as well ? It's probably looking for the wrong lib or something.
you know.. portage said i had freetype 1.3 installed as well as 2.1.3. But i decided to re-emerge 1.3 and voila! problem solved thanks.
looks ok in the ebuild, so shouldve been there. closing.
