Re: garnome-0.14.1 and slackware 8.0 won't compile

[Matt Blaha <thecombatwombat worldwidewombat com>]

Hi Ben,

I'm running garnome on slack 8.1 and ran into similar problems
compiling, you are right that you need to update freetype.

If you're installing from a tarball, you may have an issue with garnome
still looking to your old package, easiest fix would be to remove the
freetype package and then install from tarball.

Even easier (what I did) would be to grab some updated packages at
linuxpackages.net, and just use upgradepkg. I'm running freetype-2.1.2
from there.

Hope I helped.

Long Live Slack,

-- Matt
