Hi,

I’m not sure if we have the same problem.

When i run make it is clearly breaking when it comes to the zeromq and czmq stuff.  The issue could be rooted in the fact that i can install the zeromq libs from debian, but debian has no czmq packages. And i only seem to be able to install czmq from source manually, if i first install zeromq from source manually. My hunch is that if there was a debian package for czmq, then the build would go ok. Also if i configure without the collaboration features (that use zeromq and czmq) then i can make fine.

I must try and see if i can build on ubuntu or a totally non-debian system.

I’m not sure if you have been able to succesfully build and install fontforge with the collaboration features? have you? :)

The offending -lgutils comes from the (in my case) libgdraw.la.
