XFree86-4.2.0 is currently depending on print/freetype2, which is an often changing library (in the last six months we've gone from libfreetype.so.6 to libfreetype.so.9). How will this problem be attacked? For what it's worth, I had to link libfreetype.so.9 to so.8 because my xterms didn't want to startup anymore.
