Summary0002585: Doesn't compile for PS5 with FreeType enabled
Description

If FreeType is enabled in an UE project using Noesis, the project won't compile for PS5 due to a conflict with a third party library 'HarfBuzz' used by UE.

The compiler throws several linker errors like this:

prospero-lld : error : duplicate symbol: hb_buffer_t::clear_output()
8>>>> defined at HarfBuzz.cpp
8>>>> HarfBuzz.o:(hb_buffer_t::clear_output()) in archive ../../project/Plugins/NoesisGUI/Source/Noesis/NoesisSDK/Lib/ps5/Noesis.a
8>>>> defined at hb-buffer.cc

Adding the line "bCompileFreeType = false;" in the project's target file works as a temporary workaround.

Additional information about project and environment:
Visual Studio 2022
PS5 SDK version: 6.0.0
Engine version: 5.1.1
Noesis 3.2 UE5.1 plugin is integrated as a project plugin

Steps To Reproduce
  1. Add bCompileFreeType = true; to the target file of the project
  2. Set the build config to 'Shipping Game PS5'
  3. Try to compile
PlatformAny

Changed severity to major - as the suggested workaround has the side effect of UMG text not being rendered in a packaged build

It seems the issue got reintroduced in v. 3.2.2
Note: We also upgraded the engine to 5.3

This has been correctly solved in 3.2.3 (still not released), let us know if you want to try a preview of this version. Thanks!
