Re: build of gnome-2.0 fails for libgnomecanvas

[Sander Vesik <Sander Vesik Sun COM>]

Its a fetaure of pango - you can have totally valid and succefull pango
configurations that are not usable for gnome. Specificly, if it didn't
find freetype2, it would not build pangoft2 which in turn is expected by
libgnomecanvas.
