+- Added xlockmore-extend-freetype-include-search.patch: search only 
+  for freetype.h, not the half path. Also, extended list of 
+  directories where could freetype be found
+- Pass $(freetype-config --cflags) to exported CPPFLAGS for potential
+  future changes of freetype headers (as xlockmore uses hardcoded
+  paths instead of a saner buildsystem)
