Expected Behaviour

What were you trying to do?

Build failures were reported through automation, tracked down to gentoo USE=truetype not being enabled for certain profiles / users.

I was able to replicate this issue and track it down to ./configure ... --disable-xft, which I am also able to replicate on master.

With this option set, the following error is received and the build fails.

FftInterface.h:23:9: error: unknown type name 'XftFont'

Actual Behaviour

What should have happened, but didn't?

The software should build!

Steps to Reproduce

git clone https://github.com/fvwmorg/fvwm3.git
cd fvwm3
/autogen.sh && ./configure --disable-xft && make -j
