platforms?

Different distributions compile FreeType with different options. The
|
||||||
|
developer version of a distribution's FreeType package, which is
|
||||||
|
needed to compile your program against FreeType, includes the file
|
||||||
|
ftoption.h. Compare each platform's copy of ftoption.h to find the
|
||||||
|
differences.
