Hi, A few packages in the gnome chapter fail to build when issuing g-ir-scanner commands. The reason is they have #include <cairo.h> directives in header files, and cairo.h is in /usr/include/cairo.
While it is not a problem with compilation commands, which use -I/usr/include/cairo, that switch is not used with the g-ir-scanner command, thus giving an error. The affected packages I have found so far are librsvg, metacity, and libgxps. One workaround I have found is : sed -i 's@<cairo\.h>@<cairo/cairo.h>@' *.h (or src/*.h for metacity) I do not know much about gobject-introspection, so there could be better fixes. Anyway, with the current instructions, those packages do not build.
