Kalev, do you know if this package is intended to be used by pango and/or qt in
the future? I think we should try to avoid introducing more dependency bloat in
the Gtk and Qt toolchain so we need to be careful with such changes. I would
like to prevent introducing fontconfig and freetype as dependencies for the Gtk
and Qt toolchain so perhaps we could better eliminate the freetype (and thus
fontconfig) as dependency from this package (unless it brings a significant
benefit for the win32 target of course). A quick look at the configure.ac file
inside this package indicates that freetype (and cairo-ft) are optional.
