(I wasn't sure if it would be better for me to create a new issue for this, as what I'm sharing is related to this one and I thought we could perhaps re-open this one to continue with its background information, but please let me know if I submit a new one instead)

I've been having the same problems trying to reliably deploy an application to Heroku. It seems like only very specific version combinations work such as the example stack as described by @zbjornson. If I try the same exact build on Node 12.x.x LTS for example, it results in the build failing.

I think the issue is that only the very specific version combinations that have prebuilt packages can be deployed without an issue on Heroku, with any build-from-source alternative failing. But I can't be entirely sure about this, as the results are not 100% predictable (I am not sure why 12.16.x does not work, for example. I believe that should still be considered v79, for which there is a prebuilt package?)

I tried several version combinations to try to see if I could make sense of things, but even though there are prebuilt packages available it does not always seem to work in the way that I expected.

I tested all these on the heroku-18 stack using zbjornson's example code, modifying only the engine target in package.json:

  • v13.x.x fails
  • v13.0.x succeeds
  • v13.3.0 succeeds
  • v12.x.x fails
  • v12.0.x succeeds
  • v12.16.x fails
  • v14.0.x fails
  • v14.1.x fails

Basically it seems that the build fails because it is unable to locate the 'pangocairo' package, even though both cairo and pango are available in the stack from what I can tell, though perhaps not the "dev" version needed for building. I had also attempted to use something like a cairo buildpack but all of these seem to have been built based on the no longer supported cedar-14 stack.

The wiki entry on the subject should probably be updated as the currently described method isn't really feasible anymore. I wish I could suggest these changes myself, but so far I am unable to get a successful build from source working on Heroku.
