Any Ideas?

It's not clear what system you're on, but on a debian derivative that file is provided by the libxfont-dev package:-

$ find /usr/include/ -name libxfont2.h
/usr/include/X11/fonts/libxfont2.h
$ dpkg -S /usr/include/X11/fonts/libxfont2.h
libxfont-dev: /usr/include/X11/fonts/libxfont2.h

So you'll need to install whatever provides that on your system.

I got it to work after this, it's osx, brew install has a package for the fonts. That said I now have a black screen when I RDP to this ... Wondering why in that

That, I'm afraid, I can't help you with. OSX isn't one of our supported platforms. I didn't think the main desktop was written to run on X11 any more.

I got that problem too just now. What I did is that I directly modified the file /opt/X11/include/xorg/dixfontstr.h. I changed the include statement into following:

#include "../X11/fonts/libxfont2.h"

and that worked for me. I successfully deployed the rdp server on macOS.

Check this page: https://github.com/neutrinolabs/xrdp/wiki/Building-on-OSX-(not-official)

I've just modified the troubleshooting part of wiki.

I've used this to fix this error on mac os big sur:

export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include -I/opt/X11/include"

find another way to solve this pronlem: just copy the X11 folder into the xorg folder and make
