Details

When installing xorg/xfree86 on a clean system, I get this:

installing freetype2... done.
updating font cache... var/lib/pacman/local/freetype2-2.1.7-1/install: line 5: /usr/bin/fc-cache: No such file or directory
done.
installing fontconfig... done.
updating font cache... done.

Freetype2 should depend on fontconfig because of the postinstall, but I think we'd have a circular dependency then. I think it's best to remove the fc-cache thing from the postinstall of Freetype2, since fontconfig does that anyways.
This task depends upon
