This is using the latest version of ExtUtils::MakeMaker. If you're installing other packages fine using PREFIX it might be because of Imager's XS component, if so, setting INST_ARCHLIB directly might be a solution. The warning about LIBS is because freetype-config often includes those options, but EU::MM doesn't understand them. Tony
