Does anyone know which of this PHP options:

'--with-ttf'
'--with-freetype-dir=/usr'

is needed for using eZ with freetype support? As I can see from the php docs, '--with-ttf' options enables support for FreeType 1.x, and '--with-freetype-dir' enables support for FreeType 2. Which version of freetype does eZ use, and which of these two options is really needed?

Actualy it doesn't really answer my specific question. The '--with-ttf' and '--with-freetype-dir' options are mentioned there, but they are not discussed, and there's no mention if they are BOTH needed and why.

What I would like to know:

Is support for FreeType2 enough for eZ, or FreeType1 is needed too?
