Rust compilation error " failed to run custom build command for `freetype-sys v0.13.1' " win 10

I am trying to build a Rust program on Windows 10 having a GUI. When trying to compile a Rust file with gtk dependency on Windows 10 I keep getting the following error messages.

warning: unused manifest key: target.i686-pc-windows-msvc.freetype

The error is due to cmake not being present.

If you use APT as your package manager you can run the following command to install cmake (as that is what you are missing and is causing the error):

sudo apt install cmake

On Windows, if you have winget installed, you could use

winget install cmake

You might need to close and reopen your terminal after the installation finishes on Windows.
