Description brandur.simonsen 2015-04-13 16:03:59 UTC

freetype-config uses the crossdev $SYSROOT environment variable for path.
this caused a configuration error of media-libs/ftgl

freetype-config does not provide -I/usr/include/harfbuzz as pkg-config does ?

"
asus bin # freetype-config --cflags
-I/usr/armv5tel-softfloat-linux-gnueabi/usr/include/freetype2
asus ~ # pkg-config --cflags freetype2
-I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/include/harfbuzz 
asus bin # echo $SYSROOT
/usr/armv5tel-softfloat-linux-gnueabi
asus bin # SYSROOT=
asus bin # freetype-config --cflags
-I/usr/include/freetype2
"

this seems like the correct behavior, if you cross-compile and use headers from / you'll have problems.
