Suddenly cannot build GLEW. Child process exited with code 255

I have been building Flatpak for a while. But suddenly, any package with GLEW fail to build on my machine, flathub bot did it just fine.
I even tried re-installing my openSUSE Tumbleweed KDE.

Any idea?
Thanks.

Usually the error code 255 means that it is missing a file. So is module glew trying to call something that isn’t there?

I believe GLEW is self-contain and don’t need anything else. This GLEW is from shared-modules.

I use cmake for GLEW, now it work. Don’t know what wrong with make.
