Is there a reason you say that, that isn't visible in the part of the log that you quoted?
gnome-remote-desktop doesn't have a Makefile, so it seems unlikely to have a Makefile bug! (But it could have a bug in its Meson build system, which is analogous).
In file included from ../src/grd-settings.c:28:
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/../../../include/freerdp3/freerdp/freerdp.h:25:10: fatal error: winpr/stream.h: No such file or directory
25 | #include <winpr/stream.h>
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To me, this looks like the root cause is more likely to be that freerdp3-dev requires libwinpr3-dev (which it does have as a Depends) by #include'ing files from it, but doesn't list winpr3 in its Requires or Requires.private (or -I/usr/include/winpr3 in its Cflags or Cflags.private) to represent that fact. freerdp3 3.17.2 was uploaded recently, so this might be a regression in that version?
If that theory is correct then gnome-remote-desktop could work around it by explicitly checking for winpr3 as a dependency (and therefore getting the -I flags for winpr3 onto its compiler command-line), but the real solution would presumably be in libwinpr3-dev.
