OK so I managed it until freerdp-2.0 will work out of the box.
....
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-843
apt purge *freerdp*
sources.list modified to stretch
apt update
apt install libfreerdp-dev
sources.list remodified to buster
apt update
compile was OK - tested with xRDP = OK
next the year-long issue with pulse-sound.
Sure it will take weeks to solve it.
Did it with VNC once

_sorry to come into the list with an urge.
your last post about adopting freerdp to freerdp2 was in August
2019 and it looks like nothing happened since._
_To say nothing has happened would not be fair. Mike is working
on this and has provided the link to the branch of his git repo
where he's working on it. You can likely see his orders there, and
I would guess there has been some since August._
_I am on debian buster arm64 and yes I have no problem to compile
something - i.E. guacamole with VNC support.
BUT as you know the best protocol is RDP due to its ability to
refresh only the pixels and not, like VNC the whole screen.
Working with units like rockpro64 or Rasperry it is essential to
keep the cpu and memory usage as small as possible.
And therefore I think it is really essential to have a working RDP
implementation for guacamole (including pulsaudio and or alsa)_
_Yes. We understand. It's why it is the single highest
priority JIRA issue we have and it's currently blocking our next
release. Those of us who develop Guacamole also use it, so we
experience the same pain you so in needing this support._
_So please let me know when I can expect a working freerdp2
implementation and a configuration howto_
_I cannot provide this estimate. Mike might be able to, but
he's writing the code and then it'll need to be tested and reviewed
prior to merge. It's not going to be tomorrow or this week, and I
would say it's unlikely to be released in 2019._
_Please also understand that *everyone* involved in this project
does so on a volunteer basis. You're not interacting with paid
developers at a commercial software organization - we have day jobs
to pay our bills, and those demand varying amounts of time from us
that impact our ability to volunteer time to the project. Add
things like family and community time to that, and sometimes the
amount of time we're able to spend hacking away at code for free
gets pretty small. If I could have my way I'd get paid to do
nothing but write code for Guacamole because I love it that much,
but that isn't the reality today for me or any of the team members._
_btw.: to duplicate an active session would be important too._
_Connection sharing already exists in Guacamole. The ability to
have an administrator connect to already active sessions has already
been committed to the git master and will be released in the future
(not 1.1.0)._
