Package: libfontconfig1-dev
Version: 2.5.0-2
Severity: normal

Hi,

  The command pkg-config fontconfig --libs --static yields only 
"-lfontconfig -lexpat" when it should additionally include "-lfreetype".  
This is because the file /usr/lib/pkgconfig/fontconfig.pc is missing a 
"Requires:" line.  (Or perhaps it should be Requires.private - I am not 
sure.)  

This problem also breaks autoconf files that use PKG_CHECK_MODULES to 
find dependencies for libcairo also; This is because the link order of 
freetype and fontconfig is not correctly specified.  Therefore fixing 
this bug will enable correct static linking against libcairo.
