Bug #12065: "libgd was not built with TrueType font support" problem

From: rip@undernet.org Operating system: FreeBSD 4.3 PHP version: 4.0.6 PHP Bug Type: GD related Bug description: "libgd was not built with TrueType font support" problem <? imagettfbbox(5, 0, "x.ttf", "the text"); ?> shows : Warning: libgd was not built with TrueType font support in /www/test2.php on line 1 phpinfo(); shows : gd GD Support enabled GD Version 1.6.2 or higher FreeType Support enabled FreeType Linkage with freetype JPG Support enabled PNG Support enabled WBMP Support enabled So basically I'd say something is not working correctly. I have tried with PHP 4.0.6 on 2 FreeBSD servers I have. Here's my configure line : ./configure --enable-inline-optimization --with-apxs --enable-calendar --enable-ftp --enable-track-vars --with-gd=/usr/local --with-freetype-dir=/usr/local --with-mysql All looks ok during config & compilation of PHP. Here's what shows: checking whether to include GD support... yes checking whether to enable truetype string function in gd... no checking for freetype(2)... yes checking whether to include include FreeType 1.x support... no checking whether to include T1lib support... no checking for gdImageString16 in -lgd... (cached) yes checking for gdImagePaletteCopy in -lgd... (cached) yes checking for gdImageCreateFromPng in -lgd... (cached) yes checking for gdImageCreateFromGif in -lgd... (cached) no ... I tried with --enable-gd-native-ttf and --enable-gd-imgstrttf, it's not better. Also note that there is an error in the configure script : > cat configure | grep -i native-tt --enable-gd-native-ttf GD: Enable TrueType string function in gd" # Check whether --enable-gd-native-tt or --disable-gd-native-tt was given. It's confusing... --enable-gd-native-tt or --enable-gd-native-ttf ? Thanks, Philippe Bourcier -- Edit bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=12065&edit=1
