    Thanks for that . In that case I'll try and explicitly disable it
    and see what happens.

    OK. libglade and gmodule are no problem.

    fontconfig seems to be broken on Solaris 8 and possibly elsewhere. It
    seems to rely on type definitions in header files that are present in
    linux in /usr/include/freetype2/freetype/fttypes.h . I just build
    freetype-1.3.1 and that seemed to install OK.

    I like libxml2. Unfortunately fontconfig doesnt: it seems to require
    expat.

    Thanks to everyone for the assistance.

    Regards,

    Pete
