Dear Vernon,

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

No. I consider it a major achievement just to get the basics building and running :) Maybe next time I'll attack zeromq. But atm my configure has it disabled due to lack of that library being installed. Any my rather old ubuntu doesn't have a recent enough libzmq packaged.

Yours,
Martin

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