I've checked the build-dependencies of gegl in Ubuntu, and none of them
ship .la files. So it looks like some other library that you have built
locally, which depends on freetype (gegl does not directly build-depend
on freetype), has a .la file installed which references the now-removed
libfreetype.la.
This sort of brittleness is exactly why we no longer ship .la files.
You should rebuild your other local library against the .la-less disco
freetype, at which point this problem goes away and gegl should be
buildable.
The .la file will not be readded to the package.
** Changed in: freetype (Ubuntu)
Status: Incomplete => Won't Fix
