I have just ran selfupdate-all and I was asked to make a choice between freetype2-dev and freetype2-hinting-dev: how to know the best choice?

fink needs help picking an alternative to satisfy a virtual dependency. The
candidates:
(1) freetype2-dev: TrueType font rendering library, version 2, headers
(2) freetype2-hinting-dev: TrueType font rendering library, version 2, headers
Thanks

Here's the description of "hinting" (this is from freetype-hinting, rather than freetype2-hinting):
This package has hinting enabled. Some techniques used for that are patented by Apple; which means you may only use this version of the package if you have an appropriate patent license from Apple. If you don't, use the freetype package instead.
