10 .
11 .B freetype-config
12 .RI [ options ]
13 .
14 .
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
26 This program is part of the FreeType package.
27 .
28 .
29 .SH OPTIONS
30 .
31 There are two types of options: output/display selection options, and
32 path override options.
33 .
34 .
35 .SS Output selection options
36 .
37 Only one of the output selection options should be given at each program
38 invocation.
39 .
40 .TP
41 .B \-\-prefix
42 Return the prefix value of the installed FreeType library (the default
43 prefix will be `/usr' in most cases for distribution-installed
44 packages).
45 .
46 .TP
47 .B \-\-exec-prefix
48 Return the executable prefix value of the installed FreeType library
49 (will often be the same as the prefix value).
50 .
51 .TP
52 .B \-\-ftversion
53 Return the FreeType version number.
54 .
55 .TP
56 .B \-\-version
57 Return the `libtool version' of the FreeType library.
58 .
59 .TP
60 .B \-\-libtool
61 Return the library name for linking with libtool.
62 .
63 .TP
64 .B \-\-libs
65 Return compiler flags for linking with the installed FreeType library.
66 .
67 .TP
68 .B \-\-cflags
69 Return compiler flags for compiling against the installed FreeType library.
70 .
71 .TP
72 .B \-\-static
73 Make command line options display flags for static linking.
74 .
75 .
76 .SS Path override options
77 .
78 These affect any selected output option, except the libtool version
79 returned by `--version'.
80 .
81 .TP
82 .BI \-\-prefix= PREFIX
83 Override `--prefix' value with
84 .IR PREFIX .
85 .
86 .TP
87 .BI \-\-exec-prefix= EPREFIX
88 Override `--exec-prefix' value with
89 .IR EPREFIX .
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.
