libfreetype.la has not been packaged in libfreetype-dev since release 2.8.1-2 in February 2018. In any case, you shouldn't need it to link against FreeType 2.
Looking at your Dependencies list, you're only including shared libraries needed to run programs using FreeType, not linking against it. If this is no longer an issue, I'll close this bug as invalid. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1866365 Title: Missing /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libfreetype.la file To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/freetype/+bug/1866365/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
