configure: error: "Freetype headers not found - try installing freetype-devel"
Freetype used to install headers in ${prefix}/include/freetype2/ freetype/internal but no longer does so. The freetype developers decided these were internal headers, not to be used by other programs. Maybe IcedTea is looking for headers there. If so, it will have to be rewritten to no longer do that. You could look through the configure script to see whether it's looking for freetype headers in that directory. You may need to contact the developers of IcedTea.
This looks like a Linux message... freetype-devel most probably means the devel-package (i.e. headers) of the normal stable current freetype release.
Yes, we addressed that in one of the first messages of the thread. Now we're at the point that, even though the freetype port (which includes the headers) is installed, IcedTea cannot find them. I suggested one possible explanation.
