I got around the #include FT_COLOR_H missing macro problem by installing freetype-2.13.2. I then got ambiguous overload for ‘operator<<’ on line 77 in juce_core/memory/juce_HeavyweightLeakedObjectDetector.h which I simply commented out as it was just a DBG statement and successfully compiled Projucer (I am running 32-bit!)
Projucer.jucer has JUCE_WEB_BROWSER=0. I had to add this to extraDefs for Linux for my apps to compile
There have been issues regarding Linux package resolution but they should be resolved by the following commits on develop
The requirements have also been extended and updated to work verbatim for Ubuntu 22 and 24 distros. In addition to the packages so far libfontconfig1-dev is now also required.
If you still encounter issues compiling on Linux with the current develop, please report what distribution/version you are using, and whether the updated/extended package installation command was successul.
