The package gd provides a pkg-config file with all
its inputs in Requires.private. I think that this means that packages that depend
on gd also need these as inputs to build. This is causing trouble for example in php,
failing in configure phase with
```
checking for gdlib >= 2.1.0... no
configure: error: Package requirements (gdlib >= 2.1.0) were not met:
Package 'freetype2', required by 'gdlib', not found
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.
```
After this, php is able to configure, though it still fails in the check
phase, where 3 tests fail. These tests are related to gd, so there seems
to be other problem as well, but I see also other tests for gd disabled,
so maybe it will be fine also disabling these three to fix this, I am not sure.
