[Mlterm-dev-en] Fwd: Compilation error in 3.3.7 on Ubuntu 14.04 (solution provided)

[bd s. <bds...@gm...>]

Hi,

I just downloaded mlterm-3.3.7, but build fails with two errors:

1. First error:

mlterm-3.3.7 $ make -C /tmp/mlterm-3.3.7/xwindow/libtype
make: Entering directory `/tmp/mlterm-3.3.7/xwindow/libtype'
../../libtool --mode=compile gcc  -I../../kiklib/include
-I../../mkf/include -I/usr/include/cairo -I/usr/include/glib-2.0
-I/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/glib-2.0/include -I/usr/include/pixman-1
-I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/include/libpng12   -DUSE_TYPE_CAIRO
-DNO_DYNAMIC_LOAD_TYPE -g -O2 -I/usr/local/include -I../../mlterm
-DUSE_TYPE_CAIRO -DNO_DYNAMIC_LOAD_TYPE -c
libtool: compile: cannot determine name of library object from `-c'
make: *** [x_font_ft.o] Error 1
make: Leaving directory `/tmp/mlterm-3.3.7/xwindow/libtype'

It's clear that the filename is missing after the -c option. Adding
'x_font_ft.c' as pre-requisite in line 62 of  file
mlterm-3.3.7/xwindow/libtype/Makefile.in fixes the problem:

x_font_ft.o: x_font_ft.c
        $(LIBTOOL_CC) -DUSE_TYPE_CAIRO -DNO_DYNAMIC_LOAD_TYPE -c $<


2. Second error

gcc -o mlterm daemon.o main_loop.o main.o  ../xwindow/libxwindow.a
../mlterm/libmlterm.a ../mlterm/libmlterm_core.a
../mkf/lib/.libs/libmkf.a ../kiklib/src/.libs/libkik.a -ldl
-L/usr/local/lib ../xwindow/libtype/libtype.a
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcairo.so -lX11
../mlterm/libctl/libctl_iscii.a   -Wl,--rpath -Wl,/usr/local/lib
/usr/bin/ld: ../xwindow/libtype/libtype.a(x_font_ft.o): undefined
reference to symbol 'FcPatternAddDouble'
//usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libfontconfig.so.1: error adding symbols:
DSO missing from command line
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [mlterm] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/mlterm-3.3.7/main'
make: *** [all] Error 2

Adding the missing libraries  -lfontconfig -lfreetype at the end of
the command line fixes the above linker error.

If it matters, this was the configure line:

./configure --prefix=$HOME  --enable-static --disable-shared
--enable-ind --with-pic --with-x --with-gtk=2.0
--with-type-engines=cairo --enable-ibus
--with-scrollbars=simple,extras --enable-m17nlib


Last but not the least, thank you and all contributors for all your
hard work! mlterm is very good.
