[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 1/2] qt5base: use system/buildroot provided freetype

Peter Seiderer ps.report at gmx.net
Mon Feb 13 22:34:54 UTC 2017


Select (and use) builroot provided freetype in case qt5base gui is
selected (gui without freetype/font support makes not much sense
and gives compile errors).

Qt 5.6 needs some support to find the include headers, 5.8 is
clever enough inherently.

Fixes [1] (by avoiding the build-in freetype library which depends
on avtivated libpng support):

  Project ERROR: Library 'libpng' is not defined.
  make[3]: *** [sub-3rdparty-freetype-make_first] Error 3
