# ./configure --libdir=/usr/lib64

ERROR! You must have FreeType installed to compile MythTV.
If you think configure made a mistake, make sure you are using the latest
version from SVN.  If the latest version fails, report the problem to the
mythtv-dev at mythtv.org mailing list or IRC #mythtv on irc.freenode.net
Include the log file "config.err" produced by configure as this will help
solving the problem.

I did not, but added them and still the same.

# cat /etc/ld.so.conf
include ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
/usr/lib64
