hello,

i've already posted this question to the forum (http://bit.ly/hM3ieI) 
but i'm under the impression that the forum isn't too active ... so i'm 
trying it here again.

i've downloaded the last release candidate from sourceforge and as i'm 
still on ppc i tried to compile the program for ppc (os 10.5.8) with 
CMAKE. basically that went fine and i was able to build scribus with the 
following build-sequence:

cmake -DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES="ppc" 
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/Applications && make install

however, when starting up the rogram it immediatly crashed. the crashlog 
gave me the following:

Dyld Error Message:
   Library not loaded: /usr/local/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib
   Referenced from: 
/Applications/Scribus1.4.0.rc3.app/Contents/MacOS/Scribus
   Reason: image not found

... of course there's no libfreetype.6.dylib in /usr/local/lib but 
there's one in /opt/local/lib (must have installed it from macports. 
don't remember when or why). so, what does a proper build-sequence have 
to look like so this library is being looked up in the right place? (i 
tried  -DFREETYPE_INCLUDE_DIR=/opt/local/lib but that doesn't seem to be 
right ...).

any hints highly appreciated. thanks!

stefan
