Lion OSX: How to install libfreetype.6.dylib?

Question

I am trying to install a ruby gem, but the installation process is stopped, because:

ld: file not found: /usr/local/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib for architecture x86_         


        

Answer 1

Gabriel F. Engel's answer almost worked for me. I had to do the following change:

brew install freetype
brew link --overwrite freetype
