Well, I'm not sure it has to be done this way: actually harfbuz is in the
"recommended" dependency chain of cairo: cairo recommends fontconfig, which
recommends freetype, which recommends harfbuzz...

I do not know whether you use jhalfs. If cairo got built before harfbuzz using
jhalfs, this is most probably a bug in jhalfs, so please tell me.

Sent to blfs-dev, because some of my last messages to blfs-book have not
appeared...
