I'm using Debian 10

Looks like the linker cannot find the definitions for the std::filesystem::filesystem_error class that is used to report some of the problems when loading the background information. This is part of the C++17 specification. Maybe you're missing some libraries? On debian 10 a good point to start compiling things is to make sure you install the build-essential package. Other than that, I'm not really sure what might be going on here.

Oh, well I already have the build-essential package installed

I've uploaded some changes to stop depending on std::filesystem that should fix this issue. Please reopen it if the problem persist.
