The error message could use work though;

Can't install gd-2.0.33p2: lib not found fontconfig.3.0
Even by looking in the dependency tree:
jpeg-6bp3, png-1.2.8, libiconv-1.9.2p3
Maybe it's in a dependent package, but not tagged with @lib ?
(check with pkg_info -K -L)
If you are still running 3.6 packages, update them.

This far on, the notice about 3.6 packages is becoming obsolete;
however people without the necessary base sets installed, and
especially people who don't know enough not to mix -current
packages with a release or -stable are more likely to ask for
help than to work out the problem themselves; how about this?
