Description:
xfig (3.2.5-1) has a shared library dependency to libxp (X11 X Print Library) but libxp is not listed as dependency in the PKGBUILD.

I built xfig with and without libxp installed, but the resulting binary was never linked against libxp. Strange.
But anyway, I can't see a difference in the behavior of xfig with libxp dependency and xfig without libxp dependency.

Therefore I think the package in the repository should be
- either rebuild
- or libxp should become a dependency for xfig

Additional info:
* xfig 3.2.5-1
* libxp 1.0.0-2

Steps to reproduce:
Of course, this works only if libxp is not installed..
$ pacman -S xfig
$ ldd /usr/bin/xfig | grep '\<libXp\>'
libXp.so.6 => not found
$ pacman -S libxp
$ ldd /usr/bin/xfig | grep '\<libXp\>' | cut -d' ' -f1-3
libXp.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXp.so.6
This task depends upon
