When building get error: linking with cc failed: exit code: 1 (technically a Rust issue)

[RyanNerd]

Technically this is a Rust issue but thought I'd put it here so if anyone is trying to figure out how to fix it
I'm using Linux Mint 20.1 and this is what I get when I try to build:

rustc -O ternimal.rs     
error: linking with `cc` failed: exit code: 1

Solution:
sudo apt-get install libfreetype6-dev

If that doesn't work try installing cmake:
sudo apt install cmake
