Ubuntu Freetype2 Includes about acid HOT 6 CLOSED

Is this a cmake issue? maybe cmake from ppa is older than aur? find_package will look for FindFreetype.cmake(in module mode), which is located at /usr/share/cmake-3.13/Modules/FindFreetype.cmake on my manjaro(arch-based dtor).

I'm not sure about ubuntu/debain's package management, but you can try pip install cmake, which will also provide the latest cmake for you

I see you still have find_package(Freetype) commented out, even though the new merge made it QUIET. It could be uncommented since you're not using REQUIRED.

But what happens if Freetype is found on some Linux platforms is FREETYPE_INCLUDE_DIRS does not include any valid includes, one way that has been said to be done is linking the includes:

sudo ln -s /usr/include/freetype2/freetype /usr/include/freetype

But in my last tests this did not help. I'm not getting this on my Arch system but I am on my Ubuntu 18.10 system (and Travis builds).

Oh, that's weird. Did you install libfreetype6-dev to get the Freetype headers?

As of commit bd3f96c I switch Freetype on and logged the include dirs:
https://travis-ci.org/Equilibrium-Games/Acid/jobs/506539975#L876
https://travis-ci.org/Equilibrium-Games/Acid/jobs/506539975#L1288
I'm using this FindFreetype for analysis: https://github.com/Kitware/CMake/blob/master/Modules/FindFreetype.cmake
So it appears two includes are found, I don't think my link command changes anything, maybe the semi-colon in the path is causing issues?

from acid.

The semi-colon is a delimiter in Cmake. So those are just read as two paths, not one long one.

As for that second thing you linked, the only thing that stands out is that the includes should be #include <freetype2/ft2build.h>, but I just tried building and it didn't matter (on Arch).

Maybe Ubuntu messes with the file structure or file names on Freetype2? Not sure.
