<note><para>This release is incompatible with FreeType as of version
|
2003-11-02 02:08:32 +08:00
|
|
|
2.1.5. The problem manifests itself at runtime (e.g. with the
|
|
|
|
|
<command>quingy</command> application and the
|
|
|
|
|
<command>df_fonts</command> example). The only solution at the present
|
|
|
|
|
time is to link DirectFB against an older version of
|
|
|
|
|
FreeType.</para></note>

<note><para>The current version of avifile does not work with DirectFB.

You have to use the avifile version which can be found at
|
|
|
|
|
<ulink url="http://www.directfb.org/download/contrib/"/> or alternatively disable the
|
|
|
|
|
avifile video provider by calling configure with
|
|
|
|
|
<command>--disable-avifile</command>.</para></note>
