Versions of
libfreetype.so are named after the corresponding libtool version which freetype2 is generated with; see
freetype/docs/VERSIONS.TXT.

I am trying to compile ratpoison from pkgsrc, it breaks with following message, while trying to install libXft (ratpoison dependency)
Code:
Package dependency requirement 'freetype2 >= 21.0.15' could not be satisfied.
Package 'freetype2' has version '13.0.7', required version is '>= 21.0.15'

GCC is trying to link to the freetype2 version included in xbase.tgz, which, on such an outdated system version, predictably lags several versions behind (you should have
/usr/X11R7/lib/libfreetype.so.13.0.7 ,
whereas
/usr/pkg/lib/libfreetype.so.x.y.z, provided by
graphics/freetype2@2.9.1 is what you're looking for. Just echo:
Code:
PREFER.freetype2=pkgsrc
PREFER.fontconfig=pkgsrc
to your
/etc/mk.conf; should get the job done
