It is not a different package, just a newer version of a package which
happends to be incompatible with the previous version.
The reason they are installing in /usr/include/freetype and
/usr/include/freetype2 is because the user should be able to have them
both installed at the same time.
This should be fixed by having dependencies like
freetype >= 1.3, < 2.0 (or whatever syntax we came up with). I'm not
sure of the current status of that.
