-Due to our use of `libtool' to generate and install the FreeType 2
-libraries on Unix systems, as well as other historical events, it is
-generally very difficult to know precisely which release of the font
-engine is installed on a given system.
-
-This file tries to explain why and to document ways to properly detect
-FreeType on Unix.
-
-
-1. Version and Release numbers
-------------------------------
-
-For each new public release of FreeType 2, there are generally *three*
-distinct `version' numbers to consider:
-
- * The official FreeType 2 release number, like 2.3.1 or 2.4.10.
-
- * The libtool (and Unix) specific version number, like 13.0.7. This
- is what `freetype-config --version' returns.
-
- * The platform-specific shared object number, used for example when
- the library is installed as `/usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6.7.1'.
-
-The platform-specific number is, unsurprisingly, platform-specific and
-varies with the operating system you are using (several variants of
-Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, etc.). You should thus _never_ use it, even
-for simple tests.
-
-The libtool-specific number does not equal the release number but is
-tied to it.
-
-The release number is available at *compile* time through the following
-macros defined in FT_FREETYPE_H:
-
- - FREETYPE_MAJOR: major release number
- - FREETYPE_MINOR: minor release number
- - FREETYPE_PATCH: patch release number
-
-See below for a small autoconf fragment.
-
-The release number is also available at *runtime* through the
-`FT_Library_Version' API.
-
-
-2. History
-----------
-
-The following table gives, for all releases since 2.4.0, the
-corresponding libtool number, as well as the shared object number found
-on _most_ systems, but not all of them:

- release libtool so

-3. Autoconf Code Fragment
--------------------------
-
-Lars Clausen contributed the following autoconf fragment to detect which
-version of FreeType is installed on a system. This one tests for a
-version that is at least 2.0.9; you should change it to check against
-other release numbers.
-
-
- AC_MSG_CHECKING([whether FreeType version is 2.0.9 or higher])
- old_CPPFLAGS="$CPPFLAGS"
- CPPFLAGS=`freetype-config --cflags`
- AC_TRY_CPP([
-
-#include <ft2build.h>
-#include FT_FREETYPE_H
-#if (FREETYPE_MAJOR*1000 + FREETYPE_MINOR)*1000 + FREETYPE_PATCH < 2000009
-#error FreeType version too low.
-#endif
- ],
- [AC_MSG_RESULT(yes)
- FREETYPE_LIBS=`freetype-config --libs`
- AC_SUBST(FREETYPE_LIBS)
- AC_DEFINE(HAVE_FREETYPE,1,[Define if you have the FreeType2 library])
- CPPFLAGS="$old_CPPFLAGS"],
- [AC_MSG_ERROR([Need FreeType library version 2.0.9 or higher])])
