Description

When compiling :
/usr/include/X11/Xft/Xft.h:39:22: fatal error: ft2build.h: No such file or directory #include <ft2build.h>

Quickfix : add

-I/usr/include/freetype2

in the ccppath variable of the RakeFile.

The Xft library package 2.3.2-1 seams to be the problem, but since subtle didn't needed to be rebuild until new version of ruby 2.2.0-1, the problems was hidden.

Thanks for the report, unfortunately I don't have an arch machine here right now.

Can you please show me the output of pkg-config --libs --cflags xft?

Hello,

here is the result :
@
~$ pkg-config --libs --cflags xft

-I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/include/libpng16 -I/usr/include/harfbuzz -I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/include/libpng16 -I/usr/include/harfbuzz -lXft

Do you compile subtle on your own or via pkgbuild?

When you do it on your own, did you try to re-run the build script and wipe the old cached config data? The output of pkgconfig looks fine for me tho.
