Compiling Pango 1.0.1 with anti-aliasing support on a LFS system

[Tilman "Trillian" Sauerbeck <tilman sauerbeck web de>]

Hi folks,
I've been trying to compile Pango with AA support for some while now and I just don't succeed.

Here's how I have set up things:
I installed Freetype 2.0.9 "manually", and built XFree 4.2.0 with the following configure parameters:

#define BuildFreetype2Library   NO
#define HasFreetype2            YES
#define Freetype2Dir            /usr/local

So XFree should use my "manually built" Freetype instead of it's own freetype distribution. Anti-aliasing support genereally works fine, but when I try to configure pango, I get the following messages:

checking for FT_New_Face in -lfreetype... yes
checking For sufficiently new FreeType (at least 2.0.1)... yes
checking freetype/internal/tterrors.h usability... no
checking freetype/internal/tterrors.h presence... no
checking for freetype/internal/tterrors.h... no
checking for FT_Get_First_Char... yes
checking for XRenderFindFormat in -lXrender... yes
checking for XftFontOpen in -lXft... yes
checking X11/Xft/XftFreetype.h usability... no
checking X11/Xft/XftFreetype.h presence... no
checking for X11/Xft/XftFreetype.h... no

I can't understand why the last test for XftFreetype.h fails, the file exists!
All the paths are correct, too, and known to ld.so.conf

Any ideas why configure fails?

I'm using the latest versions of Glib and Pango, glibc 2.2.5 and gcc 3.1, if that matters.

Thanks in advance for any hints =)
