[Devel] Fwd: Bug#87691: Build problem on hurd-i386

[Anthony Fok]

Hope it is not too late to fix it for FreeType 2.0.2 so it can build
correctly on Hurd.  :-)

Package: libfreetype6
Version: 2.0.1-1
Severity: important

When building on hurd-i386, freetype does not correctly detect the 
operating system as being unix-like.  This is because freetype beleives
that anything unix-like must have /sbin/init.  This is a simple fix for this
problem (all I'm doing is detecting /hurd/auth instead of /sbin/init.  There 
may be a better way, but this way I didn't have to worry about changing their 
code):

Create a new directory builds/hurd
Create this detect.mk in it:

#
# FreeType 2 configuration file to detect a UNIX host platform.

ifeq ($(PLATFORM),ansi)

  is_hurd := $(strip $(wildcard /hurd/auth))

  PLATFORM := unix
  COPY     := cp
  DELETE   := rm -f


  # If `devel' is the requested target, we use a special configuration
  # file named `unix-dev.mk'.  It disables optimization and libtool.
  #
  ifneq ($(findstring devel,$(MAKECMDGOALS)),)
    CONFIG_FILE := unix-dev.mk
    CC          := gcc
    devel: setup
  else

    # If `lccl' is the requested target, we use a special configuration
    # file named `unix-lcc.mk'.  It disables libtool for LCC
    #
    ifneq ($(findstring lcc,$(MAKECMDGOALS)),)
      CONFIG_FILE := unix-lcc.mk
      CC          := lcc
      lcc: setup
    else
      # If a Unix platform is detected, the configure script is called and
      # `unix-def.mk' together with `unix-cc.mk' is created.
      #
      # Arguments to `configure' should be in the CFG variable.  Example:
      #
      #   make CFG="--prefix=/usr --disable-static"
      #
      # If you need to set CFLAGS or LDFLAGS, do it here also.
      #
      # Feel free to add support for other platform specific compilers in
      # this directory (e.g. solaris.mk + changes here to detect the
      # platform).
      #
       CONFIG_FILE := unix.mk

           cd builds/unix; $(USE_CFLAGS) ./configure $(CFG)
