Here's the actual linker error:

> /usr/local/lib/libpangocairo-1.0.so: undefined reference to `pango_fc_font_create_base_metrics_for_context'

So for some reason, your custom-built libpangocairo references a
symbol that the linker cannot resolve. Either something went wrong
when you built pango, or you found a bug and pangocairo
unconditionally references symbols from pangoft2 even when built
without freetype support. In the latter case you should file a bug
report, though you almost certainly want pango *with* freetype support
- make sure you have the required headers (harfbuzz, fontconfig,
freetype2) and rebuild pango.

Hope that'll help you get back on track!
