sdl-ttf has a fundamental flaw:  it doesn't depend on any source of
freetype2, and so when one tries to build it:

checking for freetype-config... no
configure: error:
*** Unable to find FreeType2 library (http://www.freetype.org/)

One of the packages in the submissions queue

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1481473&group_id=17203&atid=414256

depends on sdl-ttf, but _not_ X11 (this is an Aqua version), and also
depends on freetype219.

I wanted to know whether this package should be:

1) variantized with an -ft219 variant for wesnoth-devel and other
ft219-using packages, and with another variant that depends on x11 &
shlibs instead

2) make this package -just- depend on freetype219
