Re: Compiling CVS on Linux

Yes, it's a classic... your version of Freetype is too new and you need 
to downgrade. You can probably find details in bugzilla searching for 
Freetype or FTC_Image_Cache.

Apparently the Freetype API has changed in version 2.1.8 and 
FTC_Image_Cache isn't there anymore, so I suspect you need to downgrade 
to Freetype 2.1.7 to build Mozilla. cf:
