#36049: pango cairo backend is unusable -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Reporter: com-macosforge@… | Owner: ryandesign@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.2 Keywords: | Port: pango -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Comment(by ryandesign@…): Replying to [comment:4 com-macosforge@…]:
No, it doesn't fix the problem. I previously had an older version of pango installed which didn't have this problem.
Ok, thanks for testing that. I recommend you file a bug report about the problem in [https://bugzilla.gnome.org their issue tracker] then, or write to [https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-i18n-list their mailing list] about it. I doubt the problem is specific to MacPorts. cairo is pretty much the backend that programs using pango will expect to always be available; I anticipate that trying to disable it would break a lot more ports.
Incidentally, looks like gtk-doc (and its 5000 dependencies) are required to build pango-devel too.
Thanks for noticing that; that wasn't intentional. Fixed in r97589. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/36049#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
