Installation Instructions for Patched libXft
--------------------------------------------
If you're an Arch linux user, you can just install `libxft-bgra-git`
from the AUR. If you use any other distro (void in my case), follow
the instructions below (first install libXft from your distro's
repositories):
```bash
git clone https://github.com/uditkarode/libxft-bgra
cd libxft-bgra
sh autogen.sh --sysconfdir=/etc --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man
sudo make install
```
libXft - X FreeType library (rest of the readme stuff)
---------------------------
libXft is the client side font rendering library, using libfreetype,
libX11, and the X Render extension to display anti-aliased text.
Xft version 2.1 was the first stand alone release of Xft, a library that
connects X applications with the FreeType font rasterization library. Xft
uses fontconfig to locate fonts so it has no configuration files.
Before building Xft you will need to have installed:
- FreeType https://freetype.org/
- Fontconfig https://fontconfig.org/
- libX11, libXext, & libXrender https://x.org/
All questions regarding this software should be directed at the
Xorg mailing list:
https://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
The master development code repository can be found at:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libXft
