NO. this is included in the cygwin-xfree project. We shouldn't have
two different (conflicting?) versions of the same thing.

In that case, seeing as it appears to be useful for more than just X
applications, would it be worthwhile moving it from the cygwin-xfree
project to a package under the base cygwin distribution?
Still only one version, but a wider audience. Freetype compiled with no
actual source modifications once you'd frigged around with one of the
config files a bit IIRC, so unless there are some cygwin-xfree patches to
it that make is unusable otherwise, it shouldn't be too difficult.

I'm interested in those, due that I provide the patch for the php 4.x port to
cygwin.
I can email you the latest diff on the 4.0.5 tree, so you could try to build an
DLL module for Apache and we may put it on my http://apache.dev.wapme.net/
site.

Actually, The Right Thing(tm) to do is:
(a) wait for the dependency stuff in setup.exe to settle down.
(b) which is a pre-req for: convince Suhaib/others to split up the
xfree distribution into package-pieces. Currently, *all* DLLs are in a
monolithic tarball, even though fonts have their own tarball, the server
has its own tarball, etc. E.g. "freetype" binaries are intermingled
with everything else; the packaging is not source-code-dist specific.
(c) convince Suhaib/others to also add the freetype *exe's* to this
(as-yet-nonexistent) freetype tarball (currently, only libs and headers
are included in the monolithic "all-dlls" tarball.)
(d) migrate all cygwin-xfree packages over to the "official"
distribution/setup.exe structure.
AFAIK, this ^^^^ is the current plan of action for cygwin-xfree (well,
(a) and (d) are; (b) & (c) are my wish-list for freetype).

The cygwin-xfree people get justifiably upset when a "fork" like this
happens (and make no mistake, what you're proposing is a fork -- or will
become one once the inevitable version-skew happens). Go read up on the
xpm/xpm-nox "discussions" on the cgywin-apps and cygwin-xfree mailing lists.
Besides, freetype is useless without the X libraries, anyway. If they
are going to do the work, let them.

I think the mistake is on your part. I am not proposing a fork. I am
suggesting that the freetype package be contributed by cygwin-xfree into
the base set of packages for cygwin. If the answer to that is "it will
happen soon, just wait a bit" then that's fine. You could have said that
without the condescendence(tm).
>Besides, freetype is useless without the X libraries, anyway.
Well, judging from the original email, it is at least useful for PHP, which
is not X based to my knowledge. I know I've used it in another application
that was not X based. So I guess it is not totally useless with the X
libraries, anyway.

Ah. It sounded like you wanted a freetype package, separate from what
was distributed (already) by the cygwin-xfree people. Sorry for the
misunderstanding.
> If the answer to that is "it will

I *think* that is the current plan -- modulo splitting it out from the
Xbin.tgz package and into its own "freetype" package. If the
cygwin-xfree folks don't want to do that, then it ain't gonna happen --
cgf has already given them veto power *specifically* over libfreetype.
(Long story, go read the thread in cgywin-xfree mailing list archives)

Didn't intend to be so. Sorry if it came across that way.

<crotchety voice> Well, back in the day when I provided libfreetype-1
<cough hack></crotchety voice> from the CygUtils webpage, it did depend
on X. However, it appears that freetype-2 no longer does -- I just did
a cygcheck on the latest libfreetype.dll from
cygwin-xfree-4.1.0/Xbin.tgz, and it doesn't depend on any of the X
dll's. So, it looks like you're right -- my info was out of date.
Sorry for the confusion.
