Hey Eddy,
I got the same problem and I have found a kind of "workaround":
The libXft.so.1 Library seems to be outdated an isn't used anymore by
xorg (well, I guess it's xorg), so linking to so.2 or so.2.2 won't
work at all. The symbol XftFreeTypeOpen doesn't seem to be
implemented in current versions any more (or renamed, but that
doesn't matter if you don't know the name).
So I got myself an rpm-package, which provides libXft.so.1.1 (the
so.1 is just linked to so.1.1) : xorg-x11-libs-6.8.2.2_i386.rpm and
converted it via alien to deb.
Then I opened it with ark and copied libXft.so.1.1 to /usr/lib.
Finally create this softlink:
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libXft.so.1.1 /usr/lib/libXft.so.1
and get a straight running Matlab ;)
I know this isn't a very gentle way to solve the problem, but it
works and includes only a library that isn't needed any more (only by
matlab).
I hope, I could help you,
best regards,
Daniel

Hi,
last week I had a problem as I report in the subject. In
particular
I followed the procedure below:
1) Installed Fedora 5
2) Compiled the kernel sources 2.6.15-2054 and the rtai3.3 modules;
3) Installed Matlab 7.0.1 r14sp1
Now I can start successfully Matlab, but when I tried to open
Simulink it returned the following error:
??? Can't load '/usr/local/matlab/bin/glnx86/libmwsimulink.so':
/usr/lib/libXft.so.1
So I tried to fix the problem making a link, named libXft.so.2.1.2,
to libXft.so in the same dir.
When I tried to open again Simulink, it returned:
??? Can't load '/usr/local/matlab/bin/glnx86/libmwsimulink.so':
/usr/local/matlab/bin/glnx86/libqt-mt.so.3: undefined symbol:
XftFreeTypeOpen
What does it mean?
I'm afraid that some of the library of the kernel are more updated
than the Matlab version. So I'm thinking to install Fedora Core 4
with a old kernel 2.6.xx < 15
Thank you in advance.
Eddy
