Just for posterity, I was using the pkgsrc/editors/emacs26 from
http://pkgsrc.org/, which I think is actually emacs26.3. As best as I
could tell, it was not using harfbuzz? Here were some of its
dependencies:
libotf>=0.9.13nb2:../../graphics/libotf
m17n-lib>=1.8.0nb1:../../devel/m17n-lib
libXft>=2.3.2nb2:../../x11/libXft
Luckily, there already existed a package in
pkgsrc/editors/emacs-snapshot that is emacs28.0.50. It had almost the
same dependencies plus
harfbuzz>=2.6.4nb2
and a few others. It seems to be working now for what I need.
Thank you for the information.
