correctly building emacs with lucid

correctly building emacs with lucid

Gentleman, I have a successful build script that builds emacs inside a
Centos docker container using the gtk toolkit (default)


I changed that now to build emacs with lucid. I've managed to build it. All
that I did was: dropping the gtk-devel lib, add the libpng-devel lib and
drop a --with-x-toolkit=lucid in the ./configure line.


But here's the problem: I does not recognize the fonts I have in my
~/.fonts (I used fc-cache).


It seems that lucid emacs can only use crappy fonts. What is happening?

Do I have to pass another option to ./configure to get my fonts going? Or
maybe I have to install an appropriate library before ./configure?


thanks in advance

Add below on configure:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
--with-xft
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

You probably also want --with-xft.

And maybe also --with-libotf --with-m17n-flt
