A typical set of symbolic links: libpangoft2-1.0.so -> libpangoft2-1.0.so.0.600.0 libpangoft2-1.0.so.0 -> libpangoft2-1.0.so.0.600.0 Where (in this example) libpangoft2-1.0.so.0.600.0 is the specific version of the library. A Pango application will dlopen with libpangoft2-1.0.so.0. Do an 'ls -l' in /usr/lib and see what's there. Is there a copy of libpangoft2-1.0.so.0.XXX.0 there? If not, check if Pango found freetype during configuration. I believe a relatively new version of freetype is required since the Pango freetype backend now does rotated text. (I'm guessing this is your problem.) If so, compare API version number (XXX) with version number of libpango-1.0.so.0.YYY.0 to ensure there are the same.
