[cairo] Error build does not pick up freetype at the right place

[Charles Doutriaux]

Hi

I'm trying to build cairo 1.5.10 , I got /lgm/cdat/latest/bin in my path 
defined first.
There's nothing there
my libfreetype is in /usr/lib/libfreetype.a (or so) includes are there too.
pkg-config picks it up with  no problem

when building i get the following error:
(cd .libs && rm -f libcairo.so && ln -s libcairo.so.2.15.0 libcairo.so)

creating libcairo.la
/bin/sed: can't read /lgm/cdat/latest/lib/libfreetype.la: No such file 
or directory

somehow it tries to sed with freetype in the first path! no idea why!

I never noticed this before because I used to build freetype there anyway!

Can you please help me?

Should i submit a bug report?

I'm attaching my config.log
