What does the following output
Code:
calibre-debug -c "from ctypes import util; print util.find_library('fontconfig')" |

readelf -a /usr/lib/libfontconfig.so | grep FcPatternBuild |

Also if you have a 64bit system, you need to make sure you have 32 bit versions of the fontconfig and freetype libraries

Hi,
Thanks to your posts above, I've managed to solve the problem. I had a look to see if I had freetype installed, had freetype2 installed but not freetype itself. I installed this and ran calibre_postinstall, and this time it worked fine. Thanks again for your time, much appreciated, Derry |

hi Derry,
I have a similar problem to yours. i read your post and installed freetype besides freetype2, as you suggested, but the problem persists. What exactly did you do to solve this? How do you ran calibre_postinstall, i can't seem to find it! Dimitrios |

calibre_postinstall needs to be run with root privileges.
