I get this error when building with cmake -S . -B build -DNWX_MODULE_DIRECTORY=/home/jacob/Projects/PluginPlay/install when building with shared libraries. If the option is set to off, then the build is able to complete.
Contributor guide
First steps

Research direction
Reproduce the failure with cmake -S . -B build -DNWX_MODULE_DIRECTORY=/home/jacob/Projects/PluginPlay/install and shared libraries enabled, then compare the generated build configuration with a successful non-shared build. Trace how the _deps/utilities-build/libutilities.a dependency is built and linked; done means the shared libpluginplay.so build completes without the relocation error.
