[Bug 25202] New: Wine should use pkg-config --libs freetype2 instead of freetype-config --libs

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25202

Summary: Wine should use pkg-config --libs freetype2 instead of
                    freetype-config --libs
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: build-env
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

Currently the Wine configure script uses freetype-config --libs to figure out
the flags needed for linking (freetype-config returns "-lfreetype -lz"). But
freetype-config returns the values needed for _static_ linking. Please use
pkg-config --libs freetype2 which gets it right and only reports "-lfreetype"
back.

This problem lead to e.g. http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=1951 on 64
bit builds on Debian and its derivatives (and maybe others). And even though I
can work around this by having the 32 bit libz around in the build environment,
the better solution would be not to link needlessly against it.

You really want the 32-bit libz, it's also used by other things.

Just to make it clear: I've no issues with needing the 32 bit libz but having
"-libfreetype -lz" added to all linker invocation where FreeType is needed and
maybe libz is not doesn't seem right. That's why I've asked for the usage of
pkg-config instead of freetype-config.
