Bug 219448: www/chromium uses its own embedded copy of FreeType
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=219448



--- Description ---
I was wondering why font rendering looked a bit off in Chromium. It turned out
that Chromium is using an embedded copy of FreeType coming from PDFium.

Setting "pdfium_bundle_freetype" in "./third_party/pdfium/pdfium.gni" to
"false" and rebuilding fixed this for me. Currently the condition is set to
"!is_linux".
