In BB r40502, it was possible to compile libgd with freetype support (needed for text-overlays in fswebcam), by changing the libgd Makefile :
add +libfreetype to the DEPENDS line
chg –without-freetype \ to –with-freetype=$(STAGING_DIR)/usr \Today I tried the same with r43601, which ended with this error:

/home/tmomas/openwrt/14.07/staging_dir/target-mips_34kc_uClibc-0.9.33.2/host/bin/freetype-configThe last one in staging_dir comes closest to what is required by libpng, but it hast "host" in it's path instead of "usr".
How do I tell libgd / libpng that the freetype-config is in /host/bin/freetype-config instead of /usr/bin/freetype-config?
