Description:
------------
hi,

i'm, building php-5.2 cvs-head on OSX 10.4.6.

as prereq, i've FreeType2 built into my /usr/local/X11R6 tree:

	cd /usr/local/X11R6/lib/
	ls -al *freetype*
		-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 1975684 2006-06-05 21:50 libfreetype.6.3.10.dylib
		lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel      24 2006-06-05 21:50 libfreetype.6.dylib -> libfreetype.6.3.10.dylib
		-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 2093880 2006-06-05 21:50 libfreetype.a
		lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel      24 2006-06-05 21:50 libfreetype.dylib -> libfreetype.6.3.10.dylib
		-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel     901 2006-06-05 21:50 libfreetype.la


nonetheless, w/ ENV of:

	setenv CPPFLAGS "-I${ULDM}/mysql/include/mysql -I${ULDM}/berkeley-db/include -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/ssl/include -I/usr/local/ncurses/include -I/usr/local/X11R6/include"
	setenv LDFLAGS "-bind_at_load -L${ULDM}/mysql/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient_r -L${ULDM}/berkeley-db/lib -ldb -L/usr/local/lib -lpcre -L/usr/local/ssl/lib -lssl -lcrypto -L/usr/local/ncurses/lib -lncurses -L/usr/local/X11R6/lib"

and config'ing as:

	./configure \
	...
	--with-freetype-dir=/usr/local/X11R6 \
	...

config output to console reports, as expected:

	...
	checking for FreeType 2... /usr/local/X11R6
	...

BUT, once built,checking the binary's linking,

otool -L ${ULDM}/php5/bin/php | grep freetype
        /usr/X11R6/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib (compatibility version 10.0.0, current version 10.8.0)


i.e., NOT the libfreetype we're targeting!


checking in the Makefile:

	grep X11R6 Makefile


i find:

there needs to be a way to get php build to pick up freetype from where i tell it to ...

also the case on v5.1.4

Search more information about "LD_LIBRARY_PATH" from web.
Or install the libs in sane paths. Not a bug.
 [2006-06-14 16:47 UTC] openmacnews at gmail dot com 
/usr/local/X11R6 is not a sane path?

why provide a config option, then, if the build process ignores it?


per my post, the config script CLEARLY checks for / finds it:

   checking for FreeType 2... /usr/local/X11R6

regardless of LD_LIBRARY_PATH, but then ignores what it finds.

that's "not a bug"?

Please find out first what dynamic linking means.
 [2006-06-14 17:00 UTC] openmacnews at gmail dot com 
you seem to be convinced that, despite the fact that this behavior is unlike ANY of the other myriad modules -- dynamic or otherwise -- we successfully build, that all's ok.

hmm ... one might think that specific config instructions:

   --with-freetype-dir=/usr/local/X11R6 \
   checking for FreeType 2... /usr/local/X11R6

might actually be followed.

but you must be right.

enjoy!
