That's not the right way to do it. Instead, you should use an autoconf
macro like the DBusPlugin does. The package name is freetype2. Also,
why does the "freetype" subdirectory have to be listed explicitly?

OTOH the OLPC XO's unique display has no sub-pixels, so we do not
actually want sub-pixel rendering. It's good to include nonetheless,
but we need to make sure not to accidentally enable it when running on
the XO, or if display scaling is enabled.
