Dependancy "freetype2-devel" - is it important?

Post by carldouglas »

I just compiled imagemagick, and during it said i didnt have freetype2-devel. I told it to ignore it. It seems to work ok. Will anything mess up?

Freetype is required to annotate an image with fonts. If you do perform any operations that require rendering text to an image you should be ok.
