Hi Fons,

I meanwhile found out how to fix the Problem. I'm trying to compile on a Scientific Linux 4.3 System. In our installation the X11 libraries are not in one of the path's where configure searches for libXft:

> check_library "libXft" "$enable_shared" "" \
> /usr/local/lib /usr/lib /usr/lib/X11 \
> /usr/local/lib/X11 /usr/X11R6/lib /usr/local/X11R6/lib \
> /usr/X11/lib

instead they are installed under /usr/X11R6/lib64. For all other libraries (libXpm, libX11) there are special options to define there location, but not for libXft! Could this option be added to configure? It would help in such occasions. I had to modify configure, to get it running.

Cheers,
