I had a similar problem under Debian Jessie.

Checking application software build

ERROR: Missing executables in /home/will/tmp/ecce-v7.0:
  bin/builder
  bin/vizthumbnail

The ECCE 'create_ecce_bin' command failed.  The issue(s)
identified must be resolved before the ECCE distribution can be built.


Looking through the make log, I found that the problems were with some of the headers in $ECCE_HOME/src/inv/flclient/flfreetype.c and flfreetype.h had things like
#include <freetype/ftoutln.h>
in them, but make wasn't able to find these headers because my directory is /usr/include/freetype2, not /usr/include/freetype. I changed the two lines that were pointing to the wrong place, reran build_ecce and got my installer.

Hope this helps someone else.
