Cairo (in contrib) fails to detect the fontconfig information using configure/pkgconfig.
checking for cairo's Fontconfig font backend feature...
checking for FONTCONFIG... no
checking whether cairo's Fontconfig font backend feature could be enabled... no (requires fontconfig >= 2.2.95)
The problem isnt with cairo or fontconfig though -:
configure:29935: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "$fc_REQUIRES"
Package freetype2 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing freetype2.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
Package 'freetype2', required by 'Fontconfig', not found
configure:29938: $? = 1
configure:29951: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "$fc_REQUIRES"
Package freetype2 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing
freetype2.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
Package 'freetype2', required by 'Fontconfig', not found
configure:29954: $? = 1
.. Its because the freetype2 build no longer generates freetype2.pc from builds/unix/freetype2.in

Creating of freetype2.pc didn't remove the problem :-(
