[Scribus] Solaris 10 - getting really close

[Rainer Heilke]

Greetings, all.

I'm not sure what changed in the last little while, but the newest CVS 
compiles under Solaris 10 SPARC. Thanks, guys! :-)

Unfortunately, Scribus core dumps with a Segmentation Fault on start-up. 
>From watching the splash screen, this seems to happen when searching for 
fonts. Running freetype-config gives back 9.7.3, which seems a little 
odd, but maybe that's what it is supposed to say? I used the 2.1.9 
package from sunfreeware.com. Building freetype-2.1.9 directly works, 
but gives a pile of "dereferencing type-punned pointer" errors (and yes, 
that's spelled correctly--what is "type-punned"?). It did build 
(freetype-config gave the same version number). I then removed the 
Scribus directory, slurped down the CVS tree, and rebuilt Scribus. On 
start-up, it crashed at exactly the same point.

Any ideas? We're getting closer, and that's a good sign. :-)
