Interfacing with FTGL on Fedora 11 #45

Thanks for the great tool. It produces nicer looking videos than
Codewswarm. I made this video from our CVS log:

I had an issue with building Gource on FC 11. Gource requires FTGL 2.1.3 or
higher but FC 11 has only FTGL 2.1.2. So I build the latest FTGL
2.1.3~rc5-2 from source which puts everything under /usr/local by default.
However gource-0.24/configure wasn't able to find FTGL from /usr/local so I
copied all FTGL file from /usr/local to corresponding location under /usr.

I hope this message would be helpful for other users experiencing a similar
problem. 

Thank you Andrew Caudwell for Gource.

Thanks.

You might be able to build FTGL with ./configure --prefix=/usr, though that is 
only a
guess.

i'm on CentOS 5.4, got same problem with FTGL 2.1.2
removed it and compiled 2.1.3~rc5
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ftgl/files/FTGL%20Source/2.1.3%7Erc5/ftgl-2.1.3-
rc5.tar.gz/download

and it did install it into /usr/local/ but ./configure still unable to find it,
anyone got ideas?

Did you try telling configure to install FTGL under /usr instead of /usr/local?

yes with --prefix=/usr like you said.

 ./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib64
fix the problem.
for CentOS 5.4 and i guess Fedora if 64bit system.

You probably need to install the ftgl dev package.

On centos 5.5 I was able to compile gource using ftgl 2.1.3 from atrpms and the 
rest from the standard distro.

fwiw, gource is already available in fedora since f-12.
