And this is the problem. fontconfig/freetype2 is required by other packages
many graphical applications like qpdfview, which depends on harfbuzz and
harfbuzz fails, cause of freetype/fontconfig.
Also graphical applications, which need gtk2, which depends on
pango->cairo, which fails, cause of freetype/fontconfig.
Also racket depends on pango->cairo.
I don't see the solution to install xorg-modular, cause the option of
X11_TYPE=native exists. Some Time ago, I have build graphical apps on
netbsd with native xorg, and there were no problems. There must be a
solution.
