FreeType headers not found under Mountain Lion (grrr...) #8

Closed LancePutnam closed 12 years ago

LancePutnam commented 12 years ago

Builds of AlloCore under Mountain fail due to missing FreeType headers. Versions of OS X before Mountain Lion seem to have had the FreeType headers in /usr/X11/include/. This is no longer the case and I was not able to locate them anywhere else. The problem can be fixed by installing FreeType through MacPorts or brew. However, before doing so I need someone else to confirm that the headers are indeed missing under Mountain Lion.

Apparently OSX used to include X11 which included FreeType. As of 10.8, X11 is no longer included, thus no FreeType. See https://github.com/LaurentGomila/SFML/issues/241.

I added FreeType to the MacPorts and Homebrew install scripts.
