Subject: 28.0.50; HarfBuzz font shaping library not found
Date: Wed, 20 May 2020 17:52:33 +0200
At Linux SOME 3.16.0-10-686-pae #1 SMP Debian 3.16.81-1 (2020-01-17) 
i686 GNU/Linux

With trunk from today, running

./configure --with-modules --with-mailutils

get the following warning:

configure: WARNING: This configuration uses the Cairo graphics library,
    but not the HarfBuzz font shaping library.  We recommend the use
    of HarfBuzz when using Cairo, please install HarfBuzz development
    packages.

libharfbuzz-dev however is installed, as told by apt-get.

Just FYI,
thanks
Andreas

Does config.log provide any clues as to why configure didnʼt find
harfbuzz?

What does

    pkg-config --exists --print-errors "harfbuzz >= 1.2.3"

return? Itʼs possible you need to adjust your PKG_CONFIG_PATH to
include the location of libharfbuzz.pc

So I suggest to upgrade to a newer version of HarfBuzz.  0.9.35 is
very old.
