Last time this was filed[0], it was reassigned to libxft-dev since as
far as I can tell this is their problem.  The library is supplying a
fontconfig-compatible interface by default[1] and as such should include
fontconfig in the Requires field of its .pc.

If I'm misunderstanding the situation with libxft-dev, then
clarification in that bug report would be good.  Otherwise, I'll merge
this bug into the other one.  Also, as mentioned in [1], plt-scheme (now
racket) no longer uses the code that was causing this problem so this
bug will be irrelevant either way once we get the next package uploaded
and through NEW.

[0]: #556064 which is marked as affecting src:plt-scheme, so a new bug
     shouldn't have been filed
