The configure script of fvwm looks for fontconfig-config in order to detect fontconfig. Since version 2.1.92 fontconfig-config is no longer installed by the fontconfig port. Thus the fvwm configure fails to detect fontconfig and will not compile in freetype support. >How-To-Repeat: You need to have fontconfig 2.1.92 installed in order to reproduce the problem. cd /usr/ports/x11-wm/fvwm2-devel/ && make install You can either watch the configure messages stating that fontconfig-config was not found or look into config.log or look at the output of fvwm -V. >Fix: At least the configure script needs to be fixed so that it can use pkg-config fontconfig instead of the old fontconfig-config. I don't have time to do it myself, sorry. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
