[SOLVED] error: conflicting types for 'FT_Get_Name_Index'

[gh_origin]

This is on FreeBSD, after I used the ugly symlink fix for -liconv.

Code: Select all

This is my build environment problem, not related to CopperSpice. I also build other software on this build environment, not just CopperSpice. I created these symlinks as a workaround to be able to build one of the software:

Code: Select all

doas ln -s /usr/local/include/freetype2/freetype /usr/local/include/freetype
doas ln -s /usr/local/include/freetype2/ft2build.h /usr/local/include/ft2build.h

It turned out they caused problems with CopperSpice. Removing them solved the error.

We'd just like to confirm that this entire issue was not related to CopperSpice so there is nothing we need to look at with freetype.
