I'm using the macports installation of cairo.
This is what I get with "port list cairo":
cairo @1.10.2 graphics/cairo
This is what I get with "port -qv installed cairo"
cairo @1.8.8_0+macosx
cairo @1.8.8_0+macosx+universal
cairo @1.8.10_0+macosx+universal
cairo @1.8.10_0+universal platform='darwin 10' archs='i386 x86_64'
cairo @1.10.0_1+universal platform='darwin 10' archs='i386 x86_64'
cairo @1.10.2_2+universal platform='darwin 10' archs='i386 x86_64'
cairo @1.10.2_3+universal+x11 platform='darwin 10' archs='i386 x86_64'
cairo @1.10.2_4+universal+x11 (active) platform='darwin 10' archs='i386
x86_64'
I believe the last line is the active version.
Cairo has so many dependencies, I'd hate to try to install it outside of
macports; although perhaps I can just de-install the cairo package and compile
a fresh cairo on top of the macport-built dependencies.
Any suggestions on how to root out this issue? Is anyone using gerbv on a mac
with recent macports/os X updates?
Thanks,
Dave
