The above is OK. pkg-config gives include directories of all
dependent libraries – obviously, you are building FreeType with PNG
support. If I link with harfbuzz also, I get
-I/usr/local/include/freetype2 \
-I/usr/local/include/harfbuzz \
-I/usr/include/libpng16 \
-I/usr/include/glib-2.0 \
-I/usr/lib64/glib-2.0/include
on my GNU/Linux box...
Actually, I'm not very happy that so many include directories are
returned – I can imagine that as a possible source of symbol name
clashes. On the other hand, this is the way how pkg-config works, and
a quick search didn't show up any issues with this approach.
