Comment(by gdalziel):
I compiled Cairo last night on my pure CLI laptop, I discovered that X is
not a requirement. However, libpng and pixman are, along with a font
backend such as fontconfig. I shall move X to recommended and add libpng,
pixman, and fontconfig to required. While libpng can be disabled it merely
forces Cairo to look for another backend, and a basic requirement must be
met. Does anyone think that libpng should be optional? While PNG can be
replaced with SVG I think such nuances might be better suited for the
wiki.
