Hi,

As Fred mentioned the output of freetype-config is correct (on my Ubuntu 16.04 
there's /etc/ld.so.conf.d/i386-linux-gnu.conf, which makes sure that 
libfreetype should be found). If you get linking errors then I'd suspect that 
either you haven't installed the libfreetype6-dev package (the .so file doesn't 
contain any symbols, they are present in the corresponding .a file, which is 
part of the -dev package) or there's an issue with the order of libraries on 
the command line.

I checked, and /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu is present in ld.etc.conf (actually in a subdirectory with several configuration files for multiarch support)

I have .so and .a files, as are headers: the dev package is installed.

I can link PDFKit without issues, what I want is to embed the library path into PDFKit, so that subsequently using PDFKit is a matter of linking to PDFKit and not additionally adding -lfreetype That way, a user doesn't have to know about the interals of PDFKit, or in this case GWorkspace or all other apps would need to add -lfreetype when running configure and application build.
