There is a really simple workaround till this is fixed.
This worked for me and let me compile xorgxrdp. Not sure what your use
case is but...
step 1
*$ sudo touch /usr/include/X11/fonts/fontutil.h*
This file is owned by *root:root*, with mode *0o644*.
Then edit that file and put the following contents into it:
#ifndef _FONTUTIL_H_#define _FONTUTIL_H_
#include <X11/fonts/FSproto.h>
extern int FontCouldBeTerminal(FontInfoPtr);extern int
CheckFSFormat(fsBitmapFormat, fsBitmapFormatMask, int *, int *,
int *, int *, int *);extern void
FontComputeInfoAccelerators(FontInfoPtr);
extern void GetGlyphs ( FontPtr font, unsigned long count,
unsigned char *chars, FontEncoding fontEncoding,
unsigned long *glyphcount, CharInfoPtr *glyphs );extern
void
QueryGlyphExtents ( FontPtr pFont, CharInfoPtr *charinfo,
unsigned long count, ExtentInfoRec *info
);extern Bool
QueryTextExtents ( FontPtr pFont, unsigned long count,
unsigned char *chars, ExtentInfoRec *info
);extern Bool
ParseGlyphCachingMode ( char *str );extern void InitGlyphCaching (
void );extern void SetGlyphCachingMode ( int newmode );extern int
add_range ( fsRange *newrange, int *nranges, fsRange **range,
Bool charset_subset );
#endif /* _FONTUTIL_H_ */
= = = = = = = = = = =
Save the file and then do your compile/make etc and it should succeed.
Again, this is just a workaround till the bug gets fixed but it works for
me.

Title:
libxfont1-dev is missing fontutil.h
Status in libxfont package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in libxfont source package in Xenial:

Status in xorg-server source package in Xenial:

Bug description:
[Impact]
/usr/include/xorg/dixfont.h includes X11/fonts/fontutil.h.
fontutil.h is contained in libxfont1-dev package not libxfont-dev
package (version 2.0.1).
I am trying to build xorgxrdp and it fails because fontutil.h is
missing.
In Ubuntu, libxfont1-dev package is required however libxfont1-dev and
libxfont-dev cannot be installed together. This is the problem.
Package info: Ubuntu 16.04
$ dpkg -la | grep -e xserver-xorg-dev -e libxfont-dev
ii libxfont-dev 1:2.0.1-3~ubuntu16.04.1
amd64 X11 font rasterisation library (development headers)
ii xserver-xorg-dev 2:1.18.4-0ubuntu0.3
amd64 Xorg X server - development files
[Test case]
xserver-xorg-dev needs to change the dependency on libxfont-dev to
libxfont1-dev.
[Regression potential]
none, this is just to reflect the current state
