No idea, but just as (or more) likely that something the freetype 
in /usr/local was linked to has disappeared in one of the many
other changes since then.

I *really* think it's time for you do to a new install. Keep the
/home directory, dump your pgsql database, and take the plunge.
It's worth it - I promise :-)

It's been a while, but if I recall correctly, we had to add goffice0.8
specifically for gnucash (though it's possible that something else
needs it, or maybe I'm entirely wrong in my recollection).
