Re: Info. on Gnome2 install on Debian.
Thank you for your help.
In fact there were libfreetype.so.6 in 2 locations:
- in /usr/X11R6/lib with an old version libfreetype.so.6.2
- in /usr/lib with a newer version libfreetype.so.6.3.1
The one in /usr/X11R6/lib shall be removed, it would have been issued
from XFree86 4.1, I guess ??
Many thanks
Marc
