compiling PHP4 --with-ttf

Anon

Hi -

I've been unsucessfully trying to add FreeType support to my PHP installation. GD support and T1lib worked fine, but the configure script just seems to ignore my --with-ttf argument:

./configure --with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs --with-mysql --with-t1lib=/usr/local --with-gd --with-ttf --enable-freetype-4bit-antialias-hack

and I get this every time:

checking whether to include ttf support... no

I've looked at the configure script to deciper why it ignores my argument but I'm afraid my shell programming skill is a bit weak.

Any help??

Did you have any probs with t1lib? It seems to compile fine, but when I restart Apache, it quits with a t1lib err.

Last time I experimented with t1lib+PHP (about a year ago), t1lib support made the PHP-installation rather unstable and I can't recommend it.

Well, I know this is true as of the pre-1.0 versions of t1lib. I think the latest version (1.0.1) is stable.

Does anyone know why Apache would reject a PHP module with t1lib compiled in and refuse to start?
