  * Big build system overhaul. Autotools-generated files are no longer stored in SVN, the bootstrap script is more tolerant with odd installations, all makefiles are a lot shorter.

• FTGL Version 2.0.5
  
  This project will build a static library (archive) in the src directory.
  
  The Makefiles need GNU Make in order to work properly.
  
  FTGL requires the Freetype2 library (version 2.0.9 or later) and OpenGL
  (glu version 1.2 or later). You can pass flags to the configure script
  to point it to the place where these libraries are installed, like this:
  
      $ ./configure --with-gl-inc=/usr/local/include \
                    --with-gl-lib=/usr/local/lib
  
  Should you need anything more complicated that that, try with:
  
      $ ./configure --with-gl-inc=/usr/local/include \
                    --with-gl-lib="-L/weird/location -lGL -lX11 -lXi -lXm"
  
  The same thing goes for the GLUT library.  This is optional and is only
  needed to build the demo program.  Should any of this fail, please send
  an email to mmagallo@debian.org (please include FTGL somewhere in the
  subject line) and include a copy of the config.log file that was left
  behind.
  
  If doxygen is installed, documentation in HTML format will be generated
  in the docs subdirectory.
  
  To use FTGL in your own projects you will need to link against this lib
  and include the FTGL headers located in the src directory. Your project
  will also need Freetype and OpenGL.  For your convinience a pkg-config
  metadata file has been included (ftgl.pc) and gets installed in
  <libdir>/pkgconfig, where pkg-config should be able to find it.  In
  order to take advantage of this, just include something like this in
  your makefiles:
  
      FTGL_CPPFLAGS := $(shell pkg-config --cflags ftgl)
      FTGL_LDFLAGS  := $(shell pkg-config --libs-only-L ftgl)
      FTGL_LIBS     := $(shell pkg-config --libs-only-l ftgl)
  
  The names of these variables should be self-explanatory.  Note that
  FTGL_LIBS will include -lGL, you shouldn't specify that flag separately.

  problems.
