+SUMMARY = "Generic font configuration library"
+DESCRIPTION = "Fontconfig is a font configuration and customization library, which \
+does not depend on the X Window System. It is designed to locate \
+fonts within the system and select them according to requirements \
+specified by applications. \
+Fontconfig is not a rasterization library, nor does it impose a \
+particular rasterization library on the application. The X-specific \
+library 'Xft' uses fontconfig along with freetype to specify and \
+rasterize fonts."
