Bug Description
As stated in bug #1488159, new versions of Pango deprecate their OT functions in favour of using Harfbuzz. All current LTS and stable Linux platforms already provide a suitable version of Pango... it will be an easier migration if Pango can also be updated in Devlibs.

Harfbuzz requires a GByte type that was added in glib-2.32. Unfortunately we currently use glib-2.28 and thus we need to update glib and glibmm (last version is 2.47.4), which themselves require and update of libsigc++ (2.2.11 to 2.6.2) and -optionally- libxslt (1.1.26 to 1.1.28).
