Fails to build with CMake 4.2.1

[owochle]

Miktex fails to build using CMake 4.2.1 with the following error

/tmp/tmp.OdTKebGHFa/miktex/build/Programs/TeXAndFriends/hitex/hitex.c:88:10: fatal error: hb.h: No such file or directory
   88 | #include "hb.h"
      |          ^~~~~~

hb.h is present in the file tree but cmake seems to not be able to locate it

I have the same problem. Is there a solution for this?

I installed libharfbuzz-dev and also tried building and installing harfbuzz from the source.

Thank you so much for your help.

You can make it compile successfully by adding -DUSE_SYSTEM_HARFBUZZ=FALSE -DUSE_SYSTEM_HARFBUZZ_ICU=FALSE to use the bundled harfbuzz. I don't know what causes this behaviour, but this may help debugging the issue
