Hi,
now I've tried to activate xft with fvwm (snapshot from 2003-07-23) via
uninstalling xft and installing a brand new version from xfree86
(4.3.99) as someone told me that xft is integrated in xfree86. But still
fvwm's ./configure doesn't find xft on my system. Here is an extract
from ./configure's output.
Someone else mentioned that all this is due to missing
fontconfig-config?
