yes it's a bit older, I had all those STR's I added years ago (as one big patch) that you implemented in a different way so it makes trying to catch up a bit tough, I have one branch updated but doesn't have ./configure or anything for some reason, i was using it to test on windows. maybe I'll try to catch up when this chaos stops...

How old is your customized branch? This is very likely the culprit
(see below).
I rebuilt the library and built my application. I noticed
scaling wasn't working. So I see something about needing
USE_XFT for it to work. I then changed the config.log and
found the:
WARNING: could not find the required Xft headers and/or
libraries
configure:7725: checking for freetype-config
configure:7758: result: no
The freetype developers removed freetype-config and we followed this
step to use pkg-config first and then, only if it doesn't find
freetype, fall back to the old freetype-config (assuming that the
running system is older than the above change).
Any hint on what I'm supposed to install so scaling will work
again?
I suggest to upgrade your customized FLTK 1.4 branch to a newer
state, then this ought to work again (if my assumption is correct
that your version is older).
Or you could try to pick the changes from this commit from Jan.
2019:
commit 669f159665b04a3bf9c2dbbe9db71b59a45e46c2
Date: Wed Jan 30 17:58:22 2019 +0100
Fix for STR#3473 (and its duplicate STR#3507)
Recent Linux distribution have replaced the freetype-config command
by pkg-config. The fix tries the new procedure with pkg-config and
falls back to freetype-config if the new procedure fails.
