I am Trying to compile 'xplanet' R224 (latest version) on Ubuntu 18.04 MAKE fails to find ft2build.h (freetype2 header) I have 'freetype'(2.8.1) installed properly and all the files are there. I have searched stackoverflow and found many people with the same problem (ft2build.h not found) yet no consensus on why or what the solution is.
Any help is appreciated.
MAKE ERROR MESSAGE:
In file included from getTextRenderer.cpp:8:0:
TextRendererFT2.h:4:10: fatal error: ft2build.h: No such file or directory
#include <ft2build.h>
compilation terminated.
Makefile:458: recipe for target 'getTextRenderer.o' failed
make[3]: *** [getTextRenderer.o] Error 1
MY INSTALLED FREETYPE FILES:
ls /usr/include/freetype2/freetype/config
ftconfig.h ftheader.h ftmodule.h ftoption.h ftstdlib.h
ls /usr/include/freetype2/freetype
config ftautoh.h ftbzip2.h ftcid.h ftgasp.h ftimage.h ftlzw.h ftmoderr.h ftpfr.h ftstroke.h ftttdrv.h ttnameid.h

ls /usr/include/freetype2
freetype ft2build.h
MAKEFILE INCLUDES THESE LINES:
FREETYPE2_CFLAGS = -I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/include/libpng16
FREETYPE2_LIBS = -lfreetype
FREETYPE_CFLAGS =
FREETYPE_LIBS =
The solution above was completely successful. FREETYPE2 was misspelled in three places as FREETYPE in "src/Makefile.am" Installation had no further problems
