Will pay $$ for fix of Magic: The Gathering Online bug

[Kyle Winkler]

Currently, Magic: the Gathering Online almost works, except that the fonts
are either absent or illegible.  I am willing the pay US $200 (via PayPal)
for this bug to be fixed.  If any of you are willing to give it a try, let
me know.  I will pay up front.

hehe.  If you're compiling Wine yourself, do I get $200 for telling you 
to install the latest version of Fontforge, and make sure recent 
freetype libraries are on your system?

Anyway, a good start would be searching bugs.winehq.org, and seeing if 
your bug is present there, and if not, logging the bug.

I think there might be more to it than that according to the AppDB:
http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?versionId=4447

(i.e. someone already tried 0.9.12 with fontforge-20060413)

Kyle - is there a free, downloadable demo of the game?  Including a
link would definitely help.

Which distro are you using, and is it 64 bit or 32 bit?

I ran in to a similar problem on my 64 bit gentoo box. If you have 64 bit 
linux make sure you copy freetype over to a directory containing your 32 
compatibility libraries.

cp /usr/lib/libfreetype.* /emul/linux/x86/usr/lib/

./configure --x-libraries=/emul/linux/x86/usr/lib ; make clean ; make depend 
; make

Yes, I am compiling Wine myself (0.9.15).  Yes, I do have fontforge (
0.0.20060430) and and libfreetype6 (2.2.1).  Yes, the bug is present in the
bug log (5404).
