I am running ubuntu 8.10 intrepid ibex amd64.
I have downloaded the source code of the latest version, 1.1.9.
Before I tried to compile it, I did:
sudo apt-get install build-essential sudo apt-get build-dep wine
However, when I ran ./configure in the source directory, this error came up:
configure: error: FreeType development files not found. Fonts will not be built. Dialog text may be invisible or unaligned. Use the --without-freetype option if you really want this.
So I thought, maybe I need to file a bug about the list of needed dependencies ubuntu has for wine, and typed in:
sudo apt-get install libfreetype6-dev
However, this returned:
libfreetype6-dev is already the newest version.
Those instructions worked, thanx!
So why isn't wine configure picking it up? I can install wine .deb packages and they work fine, so I will just wait a few days 'till 1.1.9 becomes available in the packages archive. Still, I think it's a pretty sever bug if one can't compile the source on the 64-bit version of the most popular distro around.
