Installing Freetype

Post by Slopey »

Hi All,

I'm having horrendous problems installing freetype on my Cygwin installation. I can check it out from the svn no problem, but the sh autogen.sh fails and Im not sure what I'm missing.

Output is as follows:

$ sh autogen.sh
running `aclocal -I .'
autogen.sh: line 15: aclocal: command not found
error while running `aclocal -I .'


Which package do I need to install to get the aclocal stuff or is there a path I need to set?

Cheers,
S.

Ok, I found aclocal-1.9 and renamed it, and also did the same thing for autom4te, but now I get a new error:

$ sh autogen.sh
running `aclocal -I .'
12042 [main] ? (5844) C:\cygwin\bin\sh.exe: *** fatal error - C:\cygwin\bin\sh
.exe: *** couldn't allocate heap, Win32 error 487, base 0x6D0000, top 0x6E0000,

zation, retry 0, exit code 0x100, errno 11
autogen.sh: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable

I've seen this could'nt allocate heap before - any ideas???

Fixed - had to reinstall Cygwin but it's working now.
