  .SH NAME
  .
  freetype-config \- Get information about a libfreetype installation
  .
  .
  .SH SYNOPSIS
  .
  .B freetype-config
  .RI [ options ]
  .
  .
  .SH DESCRIPTION
  .
  .B freetype-config
  returns information needed for compiling and linking programs with the
  FreeType library, such as linker flags and compilation parameters.
  .
  Alternatively, it can be used to query information about the
  FreeType library version installed on the system, such as the
  installation (directory path) prefix or the FreeType version number.
  .
  .PP
  If
  .BR pkg-config (1)
  is found in the path,
  .B freetype-config
  acts as a wrapper for
  .BR pkg-config .
  .
  .PP
  This program is part of the FreeType package.
  .
  .
  .SH OPTIONS
  .
  There are two types of options: output/display selection options, and
  path override options.
  .
  .
  .SS Output selection options
  .
  Only one of the output selection options should be given at each program
  invocation.
  .
  .TP
  .B \-\-prefix
  Return the prefix value of the installed FreeType library (the default
  prefix will be `/usr' in most cases for distribution-installed
  packages).
  .
  .TP
  .B \-\-exec-prefix
  Return the executable prefix value of the installed FreeType library
  (will often be the same as the prefix value).
  .
  .TP
  .B \-\-ftversion
  Return the FreeType version number, directly derived from file
  `freetype.h'.
  .
  .TP
  .B \-\-version
  Return the `libtool version' of the FreeType library.
  .
  .TP
  .B \-\-libtool
  Return the library name for linking with libtool.
  .
  .TP
  .B \-\-libs
  Return compiler flags for linking with the installed FreeType library.
  .
  .TP
  .B \-\-cflags
  Return compiler flags for compiling against the installed FreeType library.
  .
  .TP
  .B \-\-static
  Make command line options display flags for static linking.
  .
  .TP
  .B \-\-help
  Show help and exit.
  .
  .
  .SS Path override options
  .
  These affect any selected output option, except the libtool version
  returned by
  .BR \-\-version .
  .
  .TP
  .BI \-\-prefix= PREFIX
  Override
  .B \-\-prefix
  value with
  .IR PREFIX .
  .
  This also sets
  .BI \-\-exec-prefix= PREFIX
  if option
  .B \-\-exec-prefix
  is not explicitly given.
  .
  .TP
  .BI \-\-exec-prefix= EPREFIX
  Override
  .B \-\-exec-prefix
  value with
  .IR EPREFIX .
  .
  .
  .SH BUGS
  In case the libraries FreeType links to are located in non-standard
  directories, and
  .BR pkg-config (1)
  is not available, the output from option
  .B \-\-libs
  might be incomplete.
  .
  It is thus recommended to use the
  .BR pkg-config (1)
  interface instead, which is able to correctly resolve all dependencies.
  .
  .PP
  Setting
  .B \-\-exec-prefix
  (either explicitly or implicitly) might return incorrect results if
  combined with option
  .BR \-\-static .
  .
  The same problem can occur if you set the
  .B SYSROOT
  environment variable.
