Minetest may not build.

minetest-5.4.1+repack works in it's binary but,
I do not know if minetest-5.4.1+repack from apt-get source
still can be built from source, unless I need more than the
dependencies shown in the README.md file.
I also see that some newer minetest versions may be using a Asymmetric numeral systems patent from Microsoft, as some newer versions are using ZSTD.
Some newer versions of ZSTD may have parts of Microsoft's Asymmetric numeral systems patent in them, though I do not know where the
Microsoft patented parts may be at.
I think this is only a problem with the build dependencies in Trisquel,
as this compiled before without any more dependencies than listed, just not now.
Though as long as there are no security problems,
minetest-5.4.1+repack still works well so no "update" to minetest is needed.
And security patches may be backported to avoid the Microsoft Asymmetric numeral systems patent, I hope.
Or it can be proven that Microsoft can not have that patent.
https://trisquel.info/en/forum/there-asymmetricnumeralsystems-patent
I did report this in
https://gitlab.trisquel.org/trisquel/trisquel-packages/-/issues/26
Here are the build dependencies.
For Debian/Ubuntu users:
sudo apt install g++ make libc6-dev libirrlicht-dev cmake libbz2-dev libpng-dev libjpeg-dev libxxf86vm-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libsqlite3-dev libogg-dev libvorbis-dev libopenal-dev libcurl4-gnutls-dev libfreetype6-dev zlib1g-dev libgmp-dev libjsoncpp-dev
Here is what I tried.
Though maybe I also should somehow test some missing json/json.h file.
Though I did not see that in the README.md file. I think I installed all the dependencies.
cmake . -DRUN_IN_PLACE=TRUE
make -j$(nproc)
CMake Deprecation Warning at CMakeLists.txt:3 (cmake_policy):
The OLD behavior for policy CMP0025 will be removed from a future version
of CMake.
The cmake-policies(7) manual explains that the OLD behaviors of all
policies are deprecated and that a policy should be set to OLD only under
specific short-term circumstances. Projects should be ported to the NEW

I also see that some newer minetest versions may be using a Asymmetric numeral systems patent from Microsoft, as some newer versions are using ZSTD.
Software patents are an absurdity: https://patentabsurdity.com/watch.html
You almost always want to ignore them. If there is a really high risk that a given patent will be used against a free software program, then you can try to not depend on it too much. Indeed, in the worst-case scenario, that program may stop being developed or distributed. I very much doubt it will happen in the case of zstd. If it does though, one can uncompress its .zstd files (even if zstd becomes illegal, it will not disappear from the disks of its users) and recompress them with lz4 or gzip or any other similar command. That is certainly what the Minetest project would do. In all cases, free software programs do not become unethical if they infringe some patent.
I think I installed all the dependencies.
Execute that command to get all the dependencies of the minetest source package:
$ sudo apt-get build-dep minetest
The actual problem is indeed missing development headers:
fatal error: json/json.h: No such file or directory
Thank you for the help.
I also think software patents are an absurdity.
Though this minetest version does not even use ZSDT.
I just did not know how to handle that in later versions that may have used the ZSDT that also had any so called "Asymmetric numeral systems patent " also in it.
I do not know what versions of ZSTD also have any so called "Asymmetric numeral systems patent " also in it, as not all of the ZSTD sources even include it.

I just did not know how to handle that in later versions that may have used the ZSDT that also had any so called "Asymmetric numeral systems patent" also in it.
As I wrote, my advise is to ignore the patent. By the way, never publicly talk about a patent to developers possibly infringing it: you expose them to greater penalties (because they cannot plead ignorance). You can fight for the abolition of software patents in general though!
I used sudo apt-get build-dep minetest
OK. Now try to execute:
$ sudo apt-get -b source minetest
That should create the binary .deb package: https://wiki.debian.org/Packaging/SourcePackage#How_to_build_the_Debian_package
If the build is reproducible (what is not certain), that package will be bit-to-bit identical to the one you get with 'apt-get download minetest'.
I used the build instructions in the README.md before
#### Build
Build a version that runs directly from the source directory:
cmake . -DRUN_IN_PLACE=TRUE
make -j$(nproc)
Run it:
./bin/minetest
so I thought it could still be built without sudo
as running in root to build something may not be as
secure as building as a normal user, like I did before.
I think I mostly used sudo only to install programs, not build them.
Though I used Synaptic Package Manager to install most programs.
As I use an account without root most of the time and switch accounts
to even be able to use the sudo program, other that with Synaptic Package Manager, if that uses sudo.
I do not know why sudo is now needed, as it was not before,
but it looks like it can be built with the super user with an
internet connection.
I also tested it with
apt-get -b source minetest
and it can not be built off-line as a normal user though.
Though I do not know why the build instructions in the
README.md did not work as they did work before.
I also did test building it off-line as a super user,
and that also worked.
Does anyone know why the
Build a version that runs directly from the source directory:
instructions that did work before, does not work now?
Or a way to build it the way I built it before? Using the
cmake . -DRUN_IN_PLACE=TRUE
make -j$(nproc)
Perhaps I built that before with git clone
and not apt-get source.
Though I thought those were almost the same source code and that both could
be built using the build instructions in the README.md file without sudo as I did before.
Also
apt-get source minetest
works without sudo to get the source code.
Near the end of these builds that worked with
sudo apt-get -b source minetest
I saw
dpkg-genbuildinfo --build=binary -O../minetest_5.4.1+repack-2build1_amd64.buildinfo
dpkg-genchanges --build=binary -O../minetest_5.4.1+repack-2build1_amd64.changes
dpkg-genchanges: info: binary-only upload (no source code included)
dpkg-source --after-build .
dpkg-buildpackage: info: binary-only upload (no source included)
Does this "upload" thing try to upload anything to other computers?
I also tested it with 'apt-get -b source minetest' and it can not be built off-line as a normal user though.
https://wiki.debian.org/Packaging/SourcePackage#How_to_build_the_Debian_package (that I gave right after the above command) says "you need root privileges or fakeroot to build the .deb". So, apparently, fakeroot would work too. The description of that package says "fakeroot provides a fake 'root environment' by means of LD_PRELOAD and SysV IPC (or TCP) trickery. It puts wrappers around getuid(), chown(), stat(), and other file-manipulation functions, so that unprivileged users can (for instance) populate .deb archives with root-owned files; various build tools use fakeroot for this by default".
So, the reason is that the .deb archive contains files owned by root (as expected: those files end up in the system, for all users).
Perhaps I built that before with git clone and not apt-get source.
The difference may indeed come from modifications brought by the Debian Developer packaging Minetest.
Hello!
When rebuilding from source code, you may want to do it on ma VM or a machine not the one of your daily use, as you'll start gathering development packages pretty quick along with dependencies you may never use other than that only time for the package at the moment.
That said, you can use some of this pointers to rebuild from source.
sudo apt install dpkg-dev
sudo apt build-dep $package
apt source $package
cd $package-*
dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc
where $package can be virtually any package on the repo.
If you want to do level up the process, you may wanna use package-helpers and trisquel-builder tools to setup a build environment.
Regards.
I recently installed Minetest via GNU Guix and it works. Currently I am working on a VR port of Minetest, on my Talos II which has both Debian and Trisquel installed. So I guess I will be able to find out weather the problem is inherited from Debian.
I didn't have any issue using sbuild + schroot to rebuild from source,

Here are the build dependencies.
For Debian/Ubuntu users:
sudo apt install g++ make libc6-dev libirrlicht-dev cmake libbz2-dev libpng-dev libjpeg-dev libxxf86vm-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libsqlite3-dev libogg-dev libvorbis-dev libopenal-dev libcurl4-gnutls-dev libfreetype6-dev zlib1g-dev libgmp-dev libjsoncpp-dev
and the
cmake . -DRUN_IN_PLACE=TRUE
make -j$(nproc)
in the README.md file, the way I did before somehow but may not be able to do it now,
though I can build it the way Magic Banana showed me. Maybe using fakeroot with the README.md information could build it that way, though I did not yet test that way, or need fakeroot before.
Thank you Magic Banana for showing me another way to build this than just the way the README.md file showed.
I do not know how I built it before just using the text and the dependencies in the README.md file before, maybe I had more programs installed at that time than I thought.
Thank you Ark74 for the information about the virtual machine so I will not need to install many more programs on my smaller vgtrisquel-root partition I use mostly to update and install programs, and instead can even use my vgtrisquel-home partition, or other ways.
Does not build this way,
fakeroot cmake . -DRUN_IN_PLACE=TRUE
fakeroot make -j$(nproc)

but I think builds with
fakeroot apt-get -b source minetest
after getting the extra
sudo apt-get build-dep minetest
dependencies that may not be shown in the README.md file.
I do not yet know if it will still be able to be built with just the dependencies shown in the README.md file and the way the README.md file shows, or if it needs the way and extra dependencies Magic Banana showed me now.
