Hi there Nicole, LOL, it's great to have a community of people that are willing to help with n00bs like me when it comes to vcpkg. AFAIK, the issue in my case was with OpenSSL failing to compile (which I eventually got past), and the naming of the gtk *.libs. After about a half-hour of various failures and fighting with my work computer's restrictions, vcvarsall, and other stuff; I changed the name of the *.lib files according to the instructions I was following, and then the linker just exploded with roughly a gazillion errors. A small tear ran down the side of my face and I moved on. Perhaps with enough caffeine and a chatroom of pros, I might stand a chance :D Thanks again for the pointers to the discord channel. Please do forgive my remark about vcpkg being "shenanigans". It just happened to be the proverbial straw that broke my back that day.
