[GEM-dev] FTGL is there, but still no font support

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

So on Mac OS X, FTGL is now built and installed using Fink:

macosx104-powerpc:~ pd$ ls -l /sw/lib/libftgl.a
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 635052 Apr 20 22:16 /sw/lib/libftgl.a

The headers are in place:

macosx104-powerpc:~ pd$ ls /sw/include/FT*
/sw/include/FTBBox.h                 /sw/include/FTGLTextureFont.h
/sw/include/FTBitmapGlyph.h          /sw/include/FTGlyph.h
/sw/include/FTCharToGlyphIndexMap.h  /sw/include/FTGlyphContainer.h
/sw/include/FTCharmap.h              /sw/include/FTLibrary.h
/sw/include/FTContour.h              /sw/include/FTList.h
/sw/include/FTExtrdGlyph.h           /sw/include/FTOutlineGlyph.h
/sw/include/FTFace.h                 /sw/include/FTPixmapGlyph.h
/sw/include/FTFont.h                 /sw/include/FTPoint.h
/sw/include/FTGL.h                   /sw/include/FTPolyGlyph.h
/sw/include/FTGLBitmapFont.h         /sw/include/FTSize.h
/sw/include/FTGLExtrdFont.h          /sw/include/FTTextureGlyph.h
/sw/include/FTGLOutlineFont.h        /sw/include/FTVector.h
/sw/include/FTGLPixmapFont.h         /sw/include/FTVectoriser.h
/sw/include/FTGLPolygonFont.h

./configure is run with flags to point to Fink:

cd /Users/pd/auto-build/pd-extended-release/Gem/src && ./configure -- 
without-x --without-I
mageMagick \
         --without-tiff --without-jpeg --without-mpeg --without-mpeg3 \
         --without-ieee1394 --without-aviplay --without-avifile -- 
without-ffmpeg \
         --with-ftgl-includes=/sw/include --with-ftgl-libs=/sw/lib \
         --with-pd=/Users/pd/auto-build/pd-extended-release/pd


But it doesn't work:

checking for ftgl-config... yes
checking for main in -lftgl... no

I thought that Gem was statically linked against its libs, does it  
need the dylib?
