Maybe I installed X11 late or something and didn't pick up the updates. Optional isn't it?
If you do the 
otool -L /usr/X11R6/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib | head -n 3
what do you show for 'compatibility version'?

Again the error...
  Reason: Incompatible library version: libfontmanager.dylib requires version 13.0.0 or later, but libfreetype.6.dylib provides version 10.0.0

With my old version...
otool -L /usr/X11R6/lib/libfreetype.6.old | head -n 3
/usr/X11R6/lib/libfreetype.6.old:
	/usr/X11/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib (compatibility version 10.0.0, current version 10.20.0)
	/usr/lib/libz.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.2.3)

Only shows the 10.0.0 in the error message

My new version...
otool -L /usr/X11R6/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib | head -n 3
/usr/X11R6/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib:
	/opt/local/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib (compatibility version 13.0.0, current version 13.2.0)
	/opt/local/lib/libz.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.2.5)

shows the required 13.0.0.

So maybe I installed late or did install back over for some reason, at some time.
Seems still to be some possibility others might run into it.
