#16341: Freetype variant request ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: cabanela@mnstate.edu | Owner: macports-tickets@lists.macosforge.org Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Keywords: | ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- As noted at == http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/freetype/2007-11/msg00000.html == There is a problem in Leopard (possibly on intel Macs) where calling CoreFoundation with a fork() causes a crash. Unforuntately, if freetype attempts to access native font suitcases, it will access a carbon library that triggers the crash. Would it be possible to request a freetype variant that would allow disabling of the carbon library access. This can be done by adding --with-quickdraw-toolbox=no --with-quickdraw-carbon=no to the configure line. I don't know what other ports this might affect, but none of them can be working on Leopard at this moment. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/16341> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
