15 .SH DESCRIPTION |
|
16 . |
|
17 .B freetype-config |
|
18 returns information needed for compiling and linking programs with the |
|
19 FreeType library, such as linker flags and compilation parameters. |
|
20 . |
|
21 Alternatively, it can be used to query information about the |
|
22 FreeType library version installed on the system, such as the |
|
23 installation (directory path) prefix or the FreeType version number. |
|
24 . |
|
25 .PP |

46 .TP |
|
47 .B \-\-exec-prefix |

|
80 . |
|
81 .TP |
|
82 .BI \-\-prefix= PREFIX |
|
83 Override `--prefix' value with |
|
84 .IR PREFIX . |
|
85 . |
|

|
90 . |
|
91 . |
|
92 .SH BUGS |
|
93 In case the libraries FreeType links to are located in non-standard |
|
94 directories, the output from option |
|
95 .B \-\-libs |
|
96 might be incomplete. |
|
97 It is thus recommended to use the |
|
98 .BR pkg-config (1) |
|
99 interface instead, which is able to correctly resolve all dependencies. |
