Fontconfig Dependencies

Required

FreeType-2.3.7 and either expat-2.0.1 or libxml2-2.6.31 (requires pkg-config-0.22)

Optional

DocBook-utils-0.6.14

Note

If you have DocBook-utils installed and you remove the --disable-docs parameter from the configure command below, you must have SGMLSpm-1.03ii and JadeTeX-3.13 installed also, or the Fontconfig build will fail.

Installation of Fontconfig

Install Fontconfig by running the following commands:

./configure --prefix=/usr \ --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var \ --disable-docs --without-add-fonts \ --with-docdir=/usr/share/doc/fontconfig-2.4.2 && make

To test the results, issue: make check.

Now, as the root user:

make install && install -v -m644 doc/*.3 /usr/share/man/man3 && install -v -m644 doc/*.5 /usr/share/man/man5 && install -v -m755 \ -d /usr/share/doc/fontconfig-2.4.2/fontconfig-devel && install -v -m644 doc/*.{html,pdf,txt} \ /usr/share/doc/fontconfig-2.4.2 && install -v -m644 doc/fontconfig-devel/* \ /usr/share/doc/fontconfig-2.4.2/fontconfig-devel

Command Explanations

--localstatedir=/var: This switch places the system font cache files in /var/cache/fontconfig.

--disable-docs: This switch avoids building the documentation (the release tarball includes pre-generated documentation).

--without-add-fonts: This switch disables the automatic search for X Window System fonts which, if found, may confuse some applications.

--with-docdir=/usr/share/doc/fontconfig-2.4.2: Though this parameter seems counter-intuitive following the preceding parameter to the configure command, it is used so that if the builder removes the --disable-docs parameter, the documentation will be installed in a versioned directory name instead of the default /usr/share/doc/fontconfig.

Configuring Fontconfig

Config Files

/etc/fonts/*, /etc/fonts/conf.avail/*, and /etc/fonts/conf.d/*

Configuration Information

The main configuration file for Fontconfig is /etc/fonts/fonts.conf. Generally you do not want to edit this file. It will also read /etc/fonts/local.conf and any files in /etc/fonts/conf.d. To put a new font directory in the configuration, create (or update) the /etc/fonts/local.conf file with your local information or add a new file in /etc/fonts/conf.d. The default location of fonts in Fontconfig is:

/usr/share/fonts

~/.fonts

Fontconfig also ships many example configuration files in the /etc/fonts/conf.avail directory. Symlinking to specific files from /etc/fonts/conf.d will enable them. The default setup is generally good enough for most users. See /etc/fonts/conf.avail/README for a description of the configuration files.

More information about configuring Fontconfig can be found in the user's manual in file:///usr/share/doc/fontconfig-2.4.2/fontconfig-user.html.

Contents

Installed Library: libfontconfig.{so,a}

Installed Directories: /etc/fonts, /usr/include/fontconfig, /usr/share/doc/fontconfig-2.4.2 and /var/cache/fontconfig

Short Descriptions

fc-cache

is used to create font information caches.

fc-cat

is used to read font information caches.

fc-list

is used to create font lists.

fc-match

is used to match available fonts, or find fonts that match a given pattern.

libfontconfig.{so,a}

contains functions used by the Fontconfig programs and also by other programs to configure or customize font access.

FreeType-2.5.0.1

Introduction to FreeType2

The FreeType2 package contains a library which allows applications to properly render TrueType fonts.

This package is known to build and work properly using an LFS-7.4 platform.

FreeType2 Dependencies

Recommended

Which-2.20 and libpng-1.6.6

User Notes: https://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/freetype2

Installation of FreeType2

If you downloaded the additional documentation, unpack it into the source tree using the following command:

tar -xf ../freetype-doc-2.5.0.tar.bz2 --strip-components=2 -C docs

Install FreeType2 by running the following commands:

sed -i -e "/AUX.*.gxvalid/s@^# @@" \ -e "/AUX.*.otvalid/s@^# @@" \ modules.cfg && sed -ri -e 's:.*(#.*SUBPIXEL.*) .*:\1:' \ include/freetype/config/ftoption.h && ./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-static && make

This package does not come with a test suite.

Now, as the root user:

make install && install -v -m755 -d /usr/share/doc/freetype-2.5.0.1 && cp -v -R docs/* /usr/share/doc/freetype-2.5.0.1

Command Explanations

sed -e ...: First command enables GX/AAT and OpenType table validation and second command enables Subpixel Rendering and Subpixel Hinting in order to improve font rendering. Note that Subpixel Rendering may have patent issues. Be sure to read the 'Other patent issues' part of https://www.freetype.org/patents.html before enabling this option.

--disable-static: This switch prevents installation of static versions of the libraries.

Contents
