Yes, freetype2 was installed, and, no, i-Installer had no complaints  
when I installed autotrace. I looked in /usr/local/lib and  
libfreetype6.dylib is indeed not there but there are these files:

-rwxr-xr-x   1 root  admin  1821780 Dec 31  2004 /usr/local/lib/ 
libfreetype.6.3.7.dylib
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root  admin       23 Jul  4 05:58 /usr/local/lib/ 
libfreetype.6.dylib -> libfreetype.6.3.7.dylib

The closeness of the names prompts me to ask if there is a problem here.

Thanks for your help.
