Bug 203865 – proper freetype support in utf8-patched vdr-graphlcd

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Lucian Muresan 2007-12-31 10:18:23 UTC]

It really only works when also the vdr-plugin itself is built with "DEFINES += -DHAVE_FREETYPE2" AND ALSO "INCLUDES += -I$(INSTALLPREFIX)/include/freetype2".
Until the plugin maintainer / utf8 patch author fixes the plugin maikefile, please sove this via ebuild. I'm attaching my current local patch for this.

I added the patch to vdr-graphtft-0.1.5-r1
works here on my system,

but iam wondering, if i link in /etc/vdr/plugins/graphlcd to the fonts.conf.ttf

ln -s fonts.conf.ttf fonts.conf

the plugin failed to load. Should this not work now with ttf fonts ?

If i link to "normal" fonts, it works and i have no Problems in "Umlauts"

Lucian, any hints ?
