FTBFS: wrong build-dependency on libkpathsea4-dev

Thank you for your bug report. I'm marking this as triaged and assigning to the motu team.

Uploaded thanks for the bug report.

Chuck, what have you uploaded? This was a sync request, and freetype1 is still broken in Gutsy.

Now, there's a new Debian version, with the following changes:
freetype1 (1.4pre.cvs20060210-1) unstable; urgency=low
   * Old maintainer adopting this package again. :-) (Closes: #432579)
   * New upstream version from CVS. Changes are in freetype1-contrib only:
      - Extended Unicode.sfd to cover characters beyond BMP (Closes: #405377)
      - Added HKSCS.sfd
   * Applied Davide Viti's patch which extends ftstrpnm for non-ASCII input.
     (Closes: #407204)
   * The binary-indep target was empty and was not listed as .PHONY.
     Fixed. (Closes: #395686)
   * Revised package description to make it more concise and clear
     about libfreetype6-dev superceding libttf2-dev. (Closes: #200796)
   * Acknowledged NMU patches. Thank you very much!
   * Use dpatch to maintain patches.
   * [07_type-punned.dpatch]: Inserted intermediate (void*) cast to silence
         GCC "dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing
         rules" warnings.
   * [98_configure_in.dpatch]: Updated configure.{in,ac}, Makefile.in and net.m4
         for newer Autoconf. Also changed 'test "x$CC" = xgcc' to
         'test "x$GCC" = yes'
   * [99_autogen.dpatch]: My try at a dpatch-based autogen to keep configure
         scripts up-to-date while keeping the Debian .diff.gz small.
         See /usr/share/doc/autotools-dev/README.Debian.gz for details.
   * Upgraded Standards-Version from 3.6.2 to 3.7.2.
   * Migrated from dh_movefiles to dh_install.
   * Fixed Lintian warnings:
      - W: freetype1 source: debian-rules-ignores-make-clean-error
      - W: freetype1 source: substvar-source-version-is-deprecated libttf-dev

The sync request has been for:
freetype1 (1.4pre.20050518-1) unstable; urgency=medium
   * This package is basically orphaned, marking it as such.
   * Fix build-dependency to libkpathsea-dev. Closes: #429254, #429677

Version 1.4pre.cvs20060210-1 from Debian unstable builds fine in a Gutsy pbuilder.

Does a sync sound reasonable, still?

freetype1 builds fine in Hardy.

Fixed in ubuntu-mobile PPA: https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mobile/+archive
