Newer versions of gentoo linux don't install a fontconfig-config script.
Insead they expect you to use something like `pkg-config fontconfig --libs`
The way gentoo implements the xft stuff is pretty wacked. I forget
exactly what i did here to fix it, but, I belive all I did was make a
wrapper script for fontconfig-config.
sa_at_m ~ % cat /usr/bin/fontconfig-config
#!/bin/bash
pkg-config fontconfig $*
You might have to edit /usr/lib/pkgconfig/fontconfig.pc and or
/usr/lib/pkgconfig/xft.pc to fix some things too.
