Hi.

I've got an application that requires for FreeType to be installed (Wine). I've downloaded the freetype-2.1.10.tar.gz file, extracted it, and have the files in a folder.

I'm no developer when it comes to Unix, so I have no idea how to go about installing it. I've attempted to install it, and I get errors, saying that it requires GNU Make.

I've downloaded the make-3.79.1.tar.gz file, extracted it, and have the files in a folder. But, I'm not sure how to go about installing this either, since I gather it is done in the same or a similar way.

Can anybody help me out, please?

Thanks,
onlyone-jc.
