Did you restart your session after installing freetype-freeworld? KDE apps 
are often run though the "kdeinit4 hack" which basically lets a kdeinit4 
executable fork and load the app as a shared library to reduce loading time, 
but this means they won't pick up the changed freetype until kdeinit4 is 
restarted.
