gettext-0.17_1 gmake-3.81_3 libiconv-1.13.1

I'm fairly sure you can --disable-nls to get rid of gettext & libiconv.

pkgconfig has a tendency to suck in other gnome projects due to its
gnome lineage.  Ugh.

If you're referring to its limited use of glib, you can disable this
too, and it'll use an embedded copy of the few things it uses from glib.
Not ideal, but workable.

It's not that it's not possible, but package system maintainers tend _not_ to have a "deny or disable by default" attitude towards dependencies. Consequently, you end up with the kitchen sink (largely because getting gnome and kde to work with all the various bells and whistles requires a Herculean effort). My comment stems from the point of view that "let's not put the users at risk of ending up with the kitchen sink if we can avoid it, especially for something so simple."

Troy, all you have to do is generate a text file like:

prefix=/usr/local
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib
includedir=${prefix}/include

Name: FreeType 2
Description: A free, high-quality, and portable font engine.
Version: 9.12.3
Requires:
Libs: -L${libdir} -lfreetype -lz -Wl,-framework,CoreServices,- framework,ApplicationServices
Cflags: -I${includedir}/freetype2 -I${includedir}

and dump it in a directory. All of those bits of info should be available from cmake. If a user has pkg-config, they win. If not, no loss. -sc
