Hello,
The attached patch makes VDR's Makefile use pkgconfig for finding libs and include dirs of freetype and fontconfig instead of making assumptions.
How about putting that stuff at the same place everywhere? Why must it have to be somewhere else on every system?
Klaus,
how about accepting the case, that the world has more than one Linux distribution and in addition, there is not only Linux where VDR can run on. How about beeing a little bit less ignorant when it comes to VDR and portability. What do you think why we have tools like pkg-config or autotools and so many projects make use of it? Because its funny? I don't think so!
What's the big deal with Villa's proposal to change two lines in the Makefile when it breaks nothing for you and makes life easier for other users?
Sorry for beeing harsh Joerg
