Dear OpenOffice Dev Team,
I've been trying to build Open Office today, but I couldn't install freetype2 on my ubuntu machine.
When I did a "./configure" in the main folder, I got the following error :
checking whether freetype is available... checking for FREETYPE... no
configure: error: Package requirements (freetype2 >= 2.0 ) were not met:
No package 'freetype2' found
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables FREETYPE_CFLAGS
and FREETYPE_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
Then I downloaded freetype 2 and installed it into /usr/local/freetype and added /usr/local/freetype in the .bashrc file , but I got the same error.
Best Regards,
Hao Wang

In general, you should be able to use the packages provided by your
distribution. On Ubuntu 18.04, the package is named
"libfreetype6-dev", and is installed by the following command:
$ sudo apt install libfreetype6-dev
This will probably be the first package out of a long
list. Unfortunately, I do not have a ready-made list of build
dependencies for Ubuntu, but someone else on this mailing list could
be able to provide it.
To whoever has any building dependencies lists: I remain available to
publish them on-line on the wiki, if you could kindly send them here.
I hope this helps.

I'm building Open Office 4.1.8 on Ubuntu 18.04.1. I fixed the freetype problem and I'm trying to fix new package missing errors.

On Ubuntu 18.04 you need
sudo apt-get install g++ gcc bison flex libarchive-zip-perl libcups2-dev libpam0g-dev \
gperf libfreetype6-dev libxaw7-dev libfontconfig1-dev libxrandr-dev patch \
libgconf2-dev libgnomevfs2-dev ant libgtk2.0-dev junit junit4 libidl-dev liborbit2-dev \
openjdk-8-jdk liblablgl-ocaml-dev
Hope this helps ;)

The package is in the "universe" repository. Make sure you enabled it:
$ sudo add-apt-repository universe
$ sudo apt update

Thank you for the fast (and accurate) answer.
This is an important detail to add to the Ubuntu instructions.
