I am trying to build the freetype library I got from here: http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/freetype/freetype-2.5.3.tar.gz But I am really failing to do so.
I am using Cent OS 6.5, and the compiler is g++ 4.8.2. I need the library to be release, static and 64 bit. Is there anyone who can explain this in simple steps, please?
