fontconfig failed to build

I try to install ethereal port, and fontconfig build failed with the following errors: $ sudo port -v install ethereal Password: ---> Building fontconfig with target all make all-recursive Making all in fontconfig make[2]: Nothing to be done for `all'.

The same error I got also after "sudo port -v install fontconfig". Of course, I run "port -d sync" before "port install ethereal".

Which version of freetype do you have (use 'port installed freetype' to find out)?

[as@…]

iBook:~ as$ port installed freetype The following ports are currently installed:

freetype @2.2.1_0 (active)

[blb@…]

That would be the problem; you need to revert to the 2.1.10 version of freetype (the Portfile has been moved back to that version, once you sync your install); see bug 9149, as well as
