I disagree with this bit. This is printed by the Wine binary and the development libraries and headers are not needed for running Wine. Such a message should instead be printed by the configure script if it detects that FreeType libraries or headers are missing.

I don't think this one is appropriate either. I agree that often FindWindowA is used where there are better solutions. But we are not going to be changing the way existing applications work so there does not seem to be much point in printing this message.

Actually, the development libraries *are* needed, though the headers are not. This is because the dlopen tries to load "libfreetype.so", NOT "libfreetype.so.6". And, at least on Debian, only the dev package provides the libfreetype.so symlink, the library package itself only contains libfreetype.so.6. (This issue is Debian bug #146136.)

Ah, thanks for enlightening us ! :-)
(that's probably what prompted me to add this message in the first place)
As it's probably only a Debian specific bug (or isn't it ?), I think changing the message to include devel stuff is still wrong, though... (as having devel stuff usually isn't required)

Well, I'm going to change the Debian package to dlopen libfreetype.so.6 instead of libfreetype.so, but it would be nice if it was fixed in Wine too, or at least have it #defined'd somewhere so the source package only need to change it one place instead of two.

I have a configure test to do that automagically, I'll put it in.

So could we inform the user at the end of configure that he must install freetype-devel if he wants to use true type fonts ?

It isn't. I'm using freetype 2.0.9-2 under RH 7.3 and the symlink isn't provided. It's provided by the freetype-devel package.
