 Thanks for the update. I do have customers who care about pangox
 -compat, but it'll be a while before module-less pango hits RHEL.

Ok.  I actually went ahead and pushed an update to pangox-compat that might
make it work:


https://git.gnome.org/browse/pangox-compat/commit/?id=edb9e0904d04d1da02bba7b78601a2aba05aaa47

If you have a way to test pangox-compat, please test, and feel free to make a
release.

 Some distros care. In Gentoo, I see seven remaining packages that have a 
 direct dependency on pangox-compat:
 
 * acroread (for opening some pdf files with filled-in forms) * atokx3 *
 gtkglext * gtkmathview * proprietary nvidia-drivers (legacy versions,
 needed for Geforce 9 and older gpus) * sawfish * vmware-workstation
 
 Of course, anything that depends on gtkglext or gtkmathview then also 
 pulls in pangox-compat into its depgraph.

That was exactly the case in August 2012, when I developed the pangox-compat
package.  The fact that those packages link to it doesn't mean that they
actually use it.  The package continues to build and link, it just won't
perform any text rendering.  If anyone is actually relying on it rendering
text, then they'll be disappointed.

I suggest you ignore this and let the bug report(no s) come in eventually.
