Hi!
At the moment I’m trying to compile fvwm from CVS on my Debian Squeeze machine to fix some taskbar issues (as suggested on this board some time ago).
But it seems I do not succeed in compiling it with support for FreeType and GTK:
[code]Fvwm Configuration:
Version: 2.5.32 (from cvs)
Executables: /usr/local/bin
Man pages: /usr/local/share/man
Modules: /usr/local/libexec/fvwm/2.5.32
Data files: ${prefix}/share/fvwm
Doc files: ${prefix}/share/doc/fvwm
Perl lib: ${prefix}/share/fvwm/perllib
Locale msg: ${prefix}/share/locale ar de fr sv_SE zh_CN
With Asian bi-direct. text support? no: No fribidi-config, pkg-config fribidi
With Gettext Native Lang support? yes (libc)
With GTK+ required for FvwmGtk? no: Failed to detect GTK, see config.log
With Iconv support? yes (from C library)
With Mouse strokes (gestures)? yes
With PNG image support? yes
With ReadLine sup. in FvwmConsole? yes
With RPlay support in FvwmEvent? yes
With Shaped window support? yes
With Shared memory for XImage? yes
With Session Management support? yes
With SVG image support? yes
With Xcursor support? yes
With Xinerama multi-head support? yes
With Xft anti-alias font support? no: Can’t detect freetype2 >= 6.1.0/2.0.6
With XPM image support? yes
With Xrender image support? yes
Build man pages? yes
Build HTML documentation? no[/code]
Actually I think I have both of these:
[code]user@mypc:~/download/fvwm$ dpkg -l | grep freetype
ii libfont-freetype-perl 0.03-1 Read font files and render glyphs from Perl using FreeType2
ii libfreetype6 2.4.2-2.1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared library files
ii libfreetype6-dev 2.4.2-2.1 FreeType 2 font engine, development files
user@mypc:~/download/fvwm$ dpkg -l | grep libgtk
ii libgtk2.0-0 2.20.1-2 The GTK+ graphical user interface library
ii libgtk2.0-bin 2.20.1-2 The programs for the GTK+ graphical user interface library
ii libgtk2.0-common 2.20.1-2 Common files for the GTK+ graphical user interface library
ii libgtk2.0-dev 2.20.1-2 Development files for the GTK+ library
ii libgtk2.0-doc 2.20.1-2 Documentation for the GTK+ graphical user interface library
ii libgtkmm-2.4-1c2a 1:2.20.3-1 C++ wrappers for GTK+ (shared libraries)
ii libgtkmm-2.4-dev 1:2.20.3-1 C++ wrappers for GTK+ (development files)[/code]
but I can’t make it work. The config.log file shows the following message:

configure:7857: result: no
I can execute freetype-config in a terminal session without any problems but it seems it cannot be found during configure. 
I guess I forgot something but I don’t know what it is… 
I’d appreciate some advice.
Thanks,
