Vicente, All,

On 2015-12-07 16:19 +0000, Vicente Olivert Riera spake thusly:
> If no system font provider is provided, then libass will fail to build

It is my understanding that fontconfig *is* a "system font provider", so
maybe that should go n the else-case for fontconfig, below?

>  ifeq ($(BR2_PACKAGE_FONTCONFIG),y)
>  LIBASS_DEPENDENCIES += fontconfig
>  LIBASS_CONF_OPTS += --enable-fontconfig
Here:

    else
    LIBASS_CONF_OPTS += \
        --disable-fontconfig \
        --disable-require-system-font-provider
    endif
