Make sure you have fontconfig-devel.

Here is a command I use on Fedora:

sudo dnf -y install boost-devel cairo-devel cups-devel fontconfig-devel freetype-devel GraphicsMagick-c++-devel GraphicsMagick-devel harfbuzz-devel hunspell-devel kernel-devel lcms2-devel libicu-devel libjpeg-turbo-devel libmspub-devel libpng-devel librevenge-devel libstdc++-devel libtiff-devel libwpd-devel libxml2-devel OpenSceneGraph-devel podofo-devel poppler-devel poppler-data poppler-data-devel poppler-cpp poppler-cpp-devel python-devel python-qt5-devel qt5-qtbase-devel qt5-qtdeclarative-devel qt5-qttools-devel qt5-qtwebkit-devel

to make sure I have everything I need.
