Personally I don't install pycairo as nothing I install uses it. I do
install py2cairo for a couple of things. I thought apps would be moving
(like pycairo) from python 2 to python 3 but there doesn't seem to be
much sign of that happening. I suppose there is not much reason to have
pycairo (the python 3 version) in the book at the moment but if it's
needed in the future (if more apps start to use python 3) it can be put
back in. I don't mind.
