[ft-devel] Question about default SVG library integration in FreeType bu

Hi Werner,

I am currently working on modifying the FreeType build system to add support for a default SVG renderer. 

For something like `librsvg', things are simpler as I can just look at how FreeType is currently dealing with libraries like `harfbuzz', `zlib' and `libpng', and try to do the same for `librsvg'. Since, `librsvg' is easily available, the process will be very similar. 

However, the other two libraries under focus, `resvg' and `svgnative' both aren't available via package-managers at the moment. One approach I could take is assume that at some point these libraries will be available via package-managers, so what I could do is, install them locally, and do the configuration necessary to get `pkg-config' work with them, then I could just use the same procedure as with `librsvg'. Does this approach sound good? Are there better ways here? Let me know what you think. :)
