I'm not running woody, but in my system the freetype libs are under /usr/lib, 
and I had to create the links myself:

alex at tux:~$ ls -l /usr/lib/libfreetype.*
-rw-r--r--    1 387180 Jun  8 01:49 /usr/lib/libfreetype.a
-rw-r--r--    1 732 Jun  8 01:49 /usr/lib/libfreetype.la
lrwxrwxrwx  20 Jun 12 23:18 /usr/lib/libfreetype.so -> libfreetype.so.6.3.3
lrwxrwxrwx   20 Jun 12 23:18 /usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6 -> libfreetype.so.6.3.3
-rw-r--r--      316344 Jun  8 01:49 /usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6.3.3

If you don't have the links, that should be the issue.
