Ubuntu
freetype package

Contents of ft2build.h doesn't seem correct

Asked by BradDaBug

According to the FreeType 2 docs, the proper way to include the FreeType headers looks like this:

#include <ft2build.h>
#include FT_FREETYPE_H

Yet whenever I include ft2build.h I get an error that says "freetype/config/ftheader.h" could not be found. That file exists in "/usr/include/freetype2/config," and the command "freetype-config --cflags" returns "-I/usr/include/freetype2".

It seems like the path inside ft2build.h is incorrect. ft2build.h currently includes "freetype/config/ftheader.h", but it seems like it should be "freetype2/config/ftheader.h".

Is this a bug, or am I doing something stupid?

Never mind. Everything works when you actually give g++ the output of pkg-config...
