-devel ports in MacPorts aren't like -dev or -devel packages in some other 
package managers. In other package managers, the binaries and libraries are in 
the main package, and the -dev or -devel package contains the headers. This is 
not how things are in MacPorts. In MacPorts, everything is in the main port, 
which is usually for the latest stable version of the software. And the -devel 
ports, if they exist, are a complete package of the development versions of the 
software. So unless you specifically want the latest greatest development 
version, you should not use the -devel ports. So you should uninstall 
cairo-devel and install cairo and gtk2.
