** Description changed:

  Please sync freetype 2.4.6-2 (main) from Debian unstable (main)
  
- Explanation of the Ubuntu delta and why it can be dropped:
  FreeType 2.4.6[1] and 2.4.5[2] has been released, this version fixed several
  issues. Also fixed broken cjk fonts renderring in evince and other software.
  
  Highlights from changelog
-     - For TrueType based fonts, the ascender and descender values were
-       incorrect sometimes  (off by a pixel if the ppem value was not a
-       multiple of 5).   Depending on the use you might now  experience
-       a different  layout; the  change should  result in  better, more
-       consistent line spacing.
