cygport file attached. I've bumped the version to 1.12.2, which is
the latest stable upstream release. Upstream has actually released
1.15.5, but the News file says it's unstable and recommends that
distros not package it.
I'm proposing an unversioned source package cairomm, as well as
unversioned devel and doc packages. This is what we do with many
library packages, and it is consistent with Fedora's packaging.
It will also ease future maintenance. I've looked at the upstream
git repo, and there's been an ABI change from 1.0 to 1.14 and then to
1.16. It would be annoying to have to create a new Cygwin package for
each such change.
I'll wait for Yaakov to weigh in on this before I upload anything.
The change might require some manual intervention on sourceware, to
rename the existing cairomm1.0 directory to cairomm.

added to the package list and assigned cairomm1.0 to you
as will make any package movement easier
I've decided to hold off on this for now. There's no real need to
update cairomm1.0 at the moment, so any packaging change can wait until
there's a good reason for it.
