I've been trying to compile a JUCE project on Linux debian but a line is giving me an error:
#include <ft2build.h>
And stops compilation. How do I link to this file?

So I've had this issue before and found the straight answer this time.
First, check if you have libfreetype installed. I used:
pkg-config --cflags freetype2
I do have the library installed, so I got this as a result:
-I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/include/libpng16
If you don't have it installed, do:
sudo apt-get install libfreetype-dev libfreetype6 libfreetype6-dev
And try the first command again.
Then, link the header in your compilation.
Using the ProJucer, this is easy, just paste /usr/include/freetype2 in the Header Search Paths in the settings section.
