Whenever i try to emerge fluxbox or various other files, such as QT,

Code:

/usr/X11R6/lib/libXft.so: undefined reference to `FcPatternAddInteger'
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXft.so: undefined reference to `FcPatternAddBool'
...and so on


I successfully re-emerged xft and freetype and the works and still no luck. any clue what might be going on?

Hello,

What xfree version are you using? If you emerged xfree-4.3.0-r2, then you don't need xft anymore...

yeah, I had the same problem:
it's because xft-config --libs does not provide "-lfontconfig".
change line 10 of /usr/bin/xft-config to:
Code:

fontconfiglibs="-lfontconfig"


bye, duke42.
