323562 - Should find Xrender, freetype2, fontconfig using pkg-config

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Graphics, defect)

Description

[Christian :Biesinger (don't email me, ping me on IRC)]

(compare bug 323551)

Currently, configure.in adds a hardcoded list of libraries for fontconfig, freetype and xrender:
               MOZ_CAIRO_LIBS="$MOZ_CAIRO_LIBS $XLDFLAGS -lXrender -lfreetype -lfontconfig"

It should use pkg-config for that.

I'm using Solaris for the build. Because of this bug, it always fails. I have to add "-L/usr/sfw/lib" to MOZ_CAIRO_LIBS.

Added pkg-config checks for required libs for in-tree cairo

This has since been fixed.
