+ 3.1 Interdependency with HarfBuzz
+ .................................
+
+ Note that there is a chicken-and-egg problem currently since the
+ HarfBuzz library (used by the auto-hinter to improve support of

+ follows in case HarfBuzz is not yet installed on your system.
+
+ 1. Call FreeType's `configure' script with option
+ `--without-harfbuzz', then compile and install FreeType.
+
+ 2. Compile and install HarfBuzz.
+
+ 3. Call FreeType's `configure' script without option
+ `--without-harfbuzz' (after executing `make distclean'), then
+ compile and install FreeType again.
