Hmmm...
>From FC5:
freetype-2.1.10-5.2.1.ppc.rpm contains:
* libfreetype.so.6
* libfreetype.so.6.3.8
* libttf.so.2
* libttf.so.2.3.0
As for "nothing in core needs freetype 1.x", that may be correct. I
encountered this issue when installing a couple of apps from "extras",
* gfontview-0.5.0-5.fc5.ppc.rpm
* nagios-2.4-2.fc6.ppc.rpm
