Well, at least it calls itself FreeType 1.3.1 - and in the Debian world
it's quite normal that the number after a library name has nothing to do
with the version number but is instead incremented each time a new,
binary incompatible version of the library is released (so that people can
instal both the old and the new version of the library).
