Title: (solved) wine freetype issue
Post by: viniosity on 2014/05/19, 09:53:48

I'm trying to get PlayonLinux to work and keep running into this error:

Code: [Select]


Wine cannot find the FreeType font library.  To enable Wine to
use TrueType fonts please install a version of FreeType greater than
or equal to 2.0.5.

I've googled but can't find a thread with a solution. Somehow this worked for me out of the box when I was running Ubuntu so I hope it's just a question of a missing package. Anyone have any ideas?
