I can't reproduce this.
Attaching my build.log with success compilation

build.log

[shfbsdbvf]

Maybe the problem is in \$ENV{DESTDIR}? In my case $ENV is empty.
Anyway, I built it with a workaround after the build failed:

cd /var/tmp/portage/net-voip/linphone-desktop-5.2.4/work/linphone-desktop-5.2.4/linphone-app/src
ln -s ../include/LinphoneApp .
ebuild /var/db/repos/nest/net-voip/linphone-desktop/linphone-desktop-5.2.4.ebuild merge

Maybe the problem is in $ENV{DESTDIR}?

I don't think so.
DESTDIR is used here to avoid copying files outside of portage sendbox, like this:

 /usr/bin/cmake -E copy_directory /var/tmp/portage/net-voip/linphone-desktop-5.2.6/work/linphone-desktop-5.2.6/linphone-app/include/ /usr/include/ && cd /var/tmp/portage/net-voip/linphone-desktop-5.2.6/work/linphone-desktop-5.2.6_build/linphone-app && /usr/bin/cmake -E copy /var/tmp/portage/net-voip/linphone-desktop-5.2.6/work/linphone-desktop-5.2.6_build/linphone-app/libapp-plugin.so /usr/lib64/ && cd /var/tmp/portage/net-voip/linphone-desktop-5.2.6/work/linphone-desktop-5.2.6_build/linphone-app && /usr/bin/cmake -E copy /var/tmp/portage/net-voip/linphone-desktop-5.2.6/work/linphone-desktop-5.2.6_build/linphone-app/libapp-plugin.so /usr/lib64/

ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.

You could verify this by copying ebuild to local overlay and removing this line from it.

In your original error you're missing headers for plugin and looks like you workaround makes them accessible for your build environment.

Your ebuild works for me in the same way as ebuild without 'ln'.

In your original error:

In file included from /var/tmp/portage/net-voip/linphone-desktop-5.2.4/work/linphone-desktop-5.2.4_build/linphone-app/app-library_autogen/WROIZFETPG/../../../../linphone-desktop-5.2.4/linphone-app/src/components/contacts/ContactsImporterModel.hpp:28

It fails on string #include "include/LinphoneApp/PluginDataAPI.hpp" in file ContactsImporterModel.hpp because it can't find PluginDataAPI.hpp under the one of provided paths:

• "-I/var/tmp/portage/net-voip/linphone-desktop-5.2.4/work/linphone-desktop-5.2.4_build/linphone-app"
• "-I/var/tmp/portage/net-voip/linphone-desktop-5.2.4/work/linphone-desktop-5.2.4/linphone-app"
• "-I/var/tmp/portage/net-voip/linphone-desktop-5.2.4/work/linphone-desktop-5.2.4_build/linphone-app/app-library_autogen/include"
• "-I/var/tmp/portage/net-voip/linphone-desktop-5.2.4/work/linphone-desktop-5.2.4/linphone-app/src"
• "-I/usr/include/OpenGL"
• "-I"/var/tmp/portage/net-voip/linphone-desktop-5.2.4/work/linphone-desktop-5.2.4/linphone-app/$ENV{DESTDIR}/usr/include""

which doesn't make much sense since it is available under the second from the top path:

ls /var/tmp/portage/net-voip/linphone-desktop-5.2.4/work/linphone-desktop-5.2.4/linphone-app/include/LinphoneApp/PluginDataAPI.hpp 
/var/tmp/portage/net-voip/linphone-desktop-5.2.4/work/linphone-desktop-5.2.4/linphone-app/include/LinphoneApp/PluginDataAPI.hpp

Your change makes PluginDataAPI.hpp available under /var/tmp/portage/net-voip/linphone-desktop-5.2.4/work/linphone-desktop-5.2.4/linphone-app/src/LinphoneApp, absolute path for it will be:

/var/tmp/portage/net-voip/linphone-desktop-5.2.4/work/linphone-desktop-5.2.4/linphone-app/src/LinphoneApp/PluginDataAPI.hpp

but there are no reference to this file as LinphoneApp/PluginDataAPI.hpp in whole Linphone's codebase. There're references to include/LinphoneApp/PluginDataAPI.hpp only.

So your change shouldn't make any difference, but apparently it works for you.

So, I have no idea why your build environment ignores supplied path for headers /var/tmp/portage/net-voip/linphone-desktop-5.2.4/work/linphone-desktop-5.2.4/linphone-app and I have no idea why your change helps you.

But this change harmless and if it helps your it could be applied, but not in the way you proposed it.
Change it to

        ln -s ../include/LinphoneApp linphone-app/src || die "ln failed"

and I will merge it.
