I have exactly the same problem on linux after recent upgrade when I try to cross-compile it...

As a temporary workaround you can:
- remove libpng.lib libjpeg.lib and zdll.lib from dependencies/lib directory
- copy dependencies/dll/jpeg62.dll to dependencies/lib/libjpeg.dll
- copy dependencies/dll/libpng12.dll to dependencies/lib/libpng12.dll
- copy dependencies/dll/zlib1.dll to dependencies/lib/zlib1.dll
- create new build directory to force cmake to find these libraries

I have also the same problem with other libraries

If there is no easy way to still use these .lib files, I will probably simply use .dll instead of .lib in dependency package.

Looks like a regression in binutils 2.25, already fixed in current git:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17910

I will update STK dependency package soon.

Edit:
Ok, already pushed to the repo:

No problem with build now.
Thanks deve for great work!
