I'm the maintainer of the libcairo library and have from time-to-time packaged libgtkcairo for myself (I could probably refresh these). I also look after other cairo deb preview packages at http://cairographics.org/packages/debian/ The cairo API is not totally stable and needs careful updates with it's dependencies and it's requirements, these are likely to change over time as more backends are already under development (such as glitz, already ITPed but upstream says is not ready for use). I would prefer that this is co-ordinated closely with the libcairo packaging since it will need close version dependencies and checks. Dave
