Regarding the freetype upgrade, could you include adding brotli as in
input and doing away with freetype-with-brotli? This is the original
discussion on this: <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/64519#4> and the
commit:
<https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/commit/?id=49b0a5ee5f908d8efa8e792f8635f723fd1d26ed>

It has been a while, but I don't know of any reason why we wouldn't have
brotli (like other distros I had checked at the time) in freetype. I
think there are only a few users of freetype-with-brotli so it is an
easy enough change.

If you agree, feel free to make that change or I can push it directly on
qt-team branch as well.

Thanks!
John
