Red Hat 8.0 ships with the bytecode hinter enabled; I think 7.3 may have as well. The enabling change to "ftoption.h" is made by Red Hat's SRPM before building. Take a look at "freetype-2.1.1-enable-ft2-bci.patch" from the SRPM; it's pretty clear that this does exactly what needs to be done. So if your fonts look ugly, lack of bytecode hinting is *not* the cause. _______________________________________________ RPM-List mailing list http://lists.freshrpms.net/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
