Error message trying to compile old Pango












0















I am currently trying to install and old version of Pango. I tried two versions, 10.5 and 1.1.1 and they say similar things. Pango 1.1.1 says:



I tried to run configure in two different versions of Pango, passing two different versions of FreeType to the configure with this command:



./configure PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/media/34GB/Arquivos-de-Programas-Linux/Freetype-2.2.1/lib/pkgconfig/

./configure PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/media/34GB/Arquivos-de-Programas-Linux/Freetype-2.9.1/lib/pkgconfig/


The results is the same for both:



checking for X... no
configure: WARNING: X development libraries not found
checking for freetype-config... no
checking freetype/internal/tterrors.h usability... no
checking freetype/internal/tterrors.h presence... no
checking for freetype/internal/tterrors.h... no
checking for FT_Get_First_Char... no
checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config
checking for fontconfig >= 1.0.1... checking for xft >= 2.0.0... configure: error: *** Didn't find any of FreeType, X11, or Win32.


*** Must have at least one backend to build



Pango 1.05 repeats the messages until FT_Get_First_Char and then says:



 configure: error: *** Didn't find any of FreeType, X11, or Win32.


*** Must have at least one backend to build Pango.



All I want to know is what packages I do need to compile to be able to compile Pango and where to find them.



The software that will need Pango only needs an old version, so I will not use a newer version, unless I have to (i.e I cannot compile an older version).
In last case, I may look for a pango dev package fro my distro, but only as a last resource, if I cannot compile an old or even a newer version.



So, anyone has an idea of what packages I do need and where to find them ?

    you're not telling what OS/distro you're using; please add that info to your question. If you're on something debian-like, you should at least apt get install xorg-dev libfreetype6-dev.
