How did you do that? Did you change the without_bytecode_interpreter variable in the spec file? Did you install the RPM that you rebuilt? Did you restart X (with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace) or reboot the machine after the upgrade? If you have a 64-bit machine, did you build and install a 32-bit RPM as well? Would you care to show the output of "rpm -qi freetype"? HTH, Filipe
