    Description

      This may be an issue with my local setup only, but I will track it here.

      What I did: Just compiled up dev and ran a test (the example from QTBUG-68041) with "-platform cocoa:fontengine=freetype", and I get no text and the following errors in the console:

      QFontEngineFT: Failed to create FreeType font engine
QFontEngineFT: Failed to create FreeType font engine
QFontEngineFT: Failed to create FreeType font engine
QFontEngineFT: Failed to create FreeType font engine
