I just experienced problems building xorg-x11. Strange thing is, I have -r7 installed, and I see no relevant changes to -r8. Anyway, here is the error message: i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -c -ansi -pedantic -Wno-return-type -w -I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/include/freetype2/config -I. -I../../../include/fonts -I../includ -I../../../exports/include/X11 -I../../../programs/Xserver/include -I../../../exports/include -I../../.. -I../../../exports/include -Dlinux -D__i386__ -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=199309L -D_POSIX_SOURCE -D_XOPEN_SOURCE -D_BSD_SOURCE -D_SVID_SOURCE -D_GNU_SOURCE -DFUNCPROTO=15 -DNARROWPROTO -DGCCUSESGAS -DAVOID_GLYPHBLT -DPIXPRIV -DSINGLEDEPTH -DXFreeXDGA -DXvExtension -DXFree86LOADER -DDLOPEN_HACK -DXFree86Server -DXF86VIDMODE -DXvMCExtension -DSMART_SCHEDULE -DXResExtension -DX_BYTE_ORDER=X_LITTLE_ENDIAN -DXORG_VERSION_CURRENT="(((6) * 10000000) + ((8) * 100000) + ((2) * 1000) + 0)" -DXFREE86_FT2 -O2 -march=pentium4 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing ftfuncs.c -o unshared/ftfuncs.o ftfuncs.c:54:10: #include expects "FILENAME" or <FILENAME> ftfuncs.c:56:10: #include expects "FILENAME" or <FILENAME> ftfuncs.c:57:10: #include expects "FILENAME" or <FILENAME> ftfuncs.c: In function `FreeTypeOpenInstance': ftfuncs.c:464: error: `TT_Face' undeclared (first use in this function) ftfuncs.c:464: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once ftfuncs.c:464: error: for each function it appears in.) ftfuncs.c:464: error: syntax error before "tt_face" ftfuncs.c:468: error: `SFNT_Service' undeclared (first use in this function) ftfuncs.c:468: error: syntax error before "sfnt" ftfuncs.c:469: error: `tt_face' undeclared (first use in this function) ftfuncs.c:469: error: syntax error before "face" ftfuncs.c:483: error: `sfnt' undeclared (first use in this function) ftfuncs.c:483: error: syntax error before "tt_face" ftfuncs.c: In function `tt_get_metrics': ftfuncs.c:812: error: `TT_LongMetrics' undeclared (first use in this function) ftfuncs.c:812: error: syntax error before "longs_m" ftfuncs.c:821: error: `longs_m' undeclared (first use in this function) ftfuncs.c:821: error: syntax error before "header" ftfuncs.c:826: error: `TT_ShortMetrics' undeclared (first use in this function) ftfuncs.c:826: error: syntax error before ')' token ftfuncs.c:827: error: syntax error before "header" ftfuncs.c: In function `ft_get_very_lazy_bbox': ftfuncs.c:842: error: `TT_Face' undeclared (first use in this function) ftfuncs.c:842: error: syntax error before "ttface" ftfuncs.c:849: error: `ttface' undeclared (first use in this function) ftfuncs.c: In function `FT_Do_SBit_Metrics': ftfuncs.c:911: error: `SFNT_Service' undeclared (first use in this function) ftfuncs.c:911: error: syntax error before "sfnt" ftfuncs.c:912: error: `TT_Face' undeclared (first use in this function) ftfuncs.c:915: error: `TT_SBit_Strike' undeclared (first use in this function) ftfuncs.c:915: error: syntax error before "strike" ftfuncs.c:916: error: `TT_SBit_Range' undeclared (first use in this function) ftfuncs.c:917: error: `TT_SBit_MetricsRec' undeclared (first use in this function) ftfuncs.c:928: error: `face' undeclared (first use in this function) ftfuncs.c:928: error: syntax error before "ft_face" ftfuncs.c:929: error: `sfnt' undeclared (first use in this function) ftfuncs.c:929: error: syntax error before "face" ftfuncs.c:934: error: `range' undeclared (first use in this function) ftfuncs.c:934: error: `strike' undeclared (first use in this function) ftfuncs.c:957: error: `elem_metrics' undeclared (first use in this function) make[5]: *** [ftfuncs.o] Error 1 make[5]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r8/work/xc/lib/font/FreeType' make[4]: *** [FreeType] Error 2 make[4]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r8/work/xc/lib/font' make[3]: *** [all] Error 2 make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r8/work/xc/lib' make[2]: *** [all] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r8/work/xc' make[1]: *** [World] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r8/work/xc' make: *** [World] Error 2 !!!

If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant. The lines mentioned are these: 54 #include FT_INTERNAL_TRUETYPE_TYPES_H 56 #include FT_INTERNAL_SFNT_H 57 #include FT_INTERNAL_STREAM_H There are several more like this before, which seem to work OK. To me it looks strange that Xorg should use anything named INTERNAL. Those three are the only such includes containing INTERNAL in their name. Maybe something else changed so that they are no longer available except really internally to freetype. On the other hand, they all three are defined in xc/extras/freetype2/include/freetype/internal/internal.h but this file seems not to be included.

Yep, you cannot build xorg against freetype 2.2. This is a known bug, although I can't find it at the moment.
OK, I just realized I had freetype manually unmasked. Can't remember why, though. I'm downgrading for the time being, thanks so far.

Thanks, Fabio. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 137759 ***
