Because of what Aaron said! It's optional! If you want it, install
it. If we put it in depends then everyone has to install - which is
backwards...

Yes, i saied dependency, but not in the "debian way" :), i saied it basead on
our PKGBUILDs "depends" field.
Anyway, the use of fnlib dont hurt the ones that dont use truetype, so i cant
see why fnlib cant be put on the xorg "depends" PKGBUILD field.
See ya !

Why xorg does not use fnlib as a pre-requisite to be installed ?
Probably because it's optional - it should have some output though...
but most packages don't have a depend=() entry for optional
dependancies... they simply output "if you want feature X, then
install package Y"
