I had this same problem. It cropped up once Xft was moved to Xfree86's control. Like Frederic said, it's probably due to an old non-mdk Xft installation. Make sure you remove all non-mdk packages that might be affecting this. Next, make sure you have the libXft in the proper new location (provided by Xfree86-libs): /usr/X11R6/lib/libXft.so.2 Your error message is pointing to /usr/lib/libXft.so.2 which is no longer valid anymore (as far as I know). Once you remove the non-mdk packages, this version of the library should disappear. If not, delete it. Now, rerun > ldconfig for good measure. That worked for me.
