Additional context

All steps to reproduce issue:

1. Install Ubuntu 25.04 (Desktop edition)

2. Install required packages:
   sudo apt install cmake blueprint-compiler git build-essential pkg-config linux-libc-dev bison autoconf automake autoconf-archive libtool curl openssl

3. Install VCPKG:
   cd ~/Downloads
   git clone https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg
   cd vcpkg
   chmod a+x bootstrap-vcpkg.sh
   ./bootstrap-vcpkg.sh
   export VCPKG_ROOT="/home//Downloads/vcpkg" PATH="$VCPKG_ROOT:$PATH" VCPKG_DEFAULT_TRIPLET="x64-linux" CXX="/usr/bin/gcc"

4. Install 'glibmm' via vcpkg:
   vcpkg install glibmm

[dg0yt]

3. export VCPKG_ROOT="/home//Downloads/vcpkg" PATH="$VCPKG_ROOT:$PATH" VCPKG_DEFAULT_TRIPLET="x64-linux" CXX="/usr/bin/gcc"

Set CXX=/usr/bin/g++ to get a C++ compiler.
