I cannot compile Inkscape on Slackware 9.1. This is the error message:

I have freetype-2.1.8 installed. The error sounds quite explanatory but not sufficiently so for my lack of experience. Can anyone help please?

Specific versions of freetype seem to have different requirements for which header files to include. :/

Well, thanks for that, but does anyone know how to fix it? Am I the only one with this problem, and if so why? I uninstalled my freetype2 and installed the latest - 2.1.9 - from source and the error is the same. Do I need an older freetype2 or what?

For now, probably. I'm using version 2.1.5.
IIRC, the fix, basically, is to include <ft2build.h> before any other freetype headers ... however, I am not sure whether that will break the build with older freetype versions. :/
