@John Arnold 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.

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.
