Re: [openvrml-develop] ./configure script not finding freetype/fontconfig in OSX

[Hisham <hi...@al...>]

Never mind...I figured it out. pkgconfig was not installed on my
system. A 'sudo port install pkgconfig' fixed the issue. The
./configure script should probably be modified to make that error more
obvious. (I would do that, but I'm a relative newbie and already spent
too much time banging my head figuring this issue out...)

Thanks!
