[Scribus] Freetype 2

[Chris Smith]

Hello,

Just a note to say that I've had no real problems using the latest freetype2 
development builds with my system (2.1.10 alpha's/pre's or whatever). I have 
been using them for over a month now.
Also in Gentoo-land the latest Firefox ebuild 1.0-r3 is now patched to build 
properly against the newer freetype2 packages (w00t!).
There are still some packages that wont build against the newer freetype2's 
but so far I've been succesful installing the older freetype build (2.1.5-r1) 
temporarily to build those packages and then reinstalling the latest dev 
build.
In a nutshell, although some packages wont build against the newer freetype2 
they do seem to run fine with it (although I'm sure I just haven't found 
those that break).
For anyone interested, there are a couple of freetype and scribus-cvs ebuilds 
that I have hacked together (standing on the shoulders of giants - little of 
the effort is actually mine) at http://realcomputerguy.com/scribus/, they 
work fine for me but no guarantees.
