Bug description:
[ Impact ]
Some apps (which use Cairo) crash when loadgin some svg[1] or pdf[2]
files.
[ Test case ]
* Open this file with Evince:
http://kernsec.org/files/LinuxSecuritySummit2012_rpm.pdf
* Open the svg file[1] with this little program compiled with:
$ gcc -ggdb test.c -o test `pkg-config --libs --cflags gtk+-3.0`
Then, launch it from the same dir of the 'geany.svg' file[1]
===========
#include <stdio.h>
#include <gtk/gtk.h>
int main (int argc, char **argv)
{
gtk_init (&argc, &argv);
GdkPixbuf *pixbuf = gdk_pixbuf_new_from_file_at_size ("geany.svg", 64, 64,
NULL);
return 0;
}
===========
[ Regression Potential ]
* The new proposed version contains a patch from Git upstream repository. It
is also available in the 1.12.4 version. According to Cairo devs, it should
have any regression:

- https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56698 (a duplicated bug)
[ Other Info ]
* This BZR branch should fix this bug:
lp:~matttbe/ubuntu/quantal/cairo/lp1074667
* You can easily test the new version by using these packages on Quantal:

A bzr branch will be linked to this bug report:
lp:~matttbe/ubuntu/raring/cairo/1074667
This new version should fix this bug.
How to easily test the new version:
You can use the new version of this package available in my ppa:matttbe/ppa
https://launchpad.net/~matttbe/+archive/ppa/+sourcepub/2767939/+listing-archive-extra
Is it possible to upload this new package to Raring repos?
And is it also possible to backport this change to Quantal-update repos?
Thank you for your help! :)
