Hey,
A while ago, we updated cairo to 1.9.2 since it looked like the 1.10 stable release would be there in time for the 11.2 schedule. It turns out we were wrong, so we'd like to go back to the 1.8 branch.
Here are some quick pros/cons.
Pros: + 1.8.x is a stable branch (1.9.x is unstable) + it will be maintained upstream (1.9.x won't get maintenance updates, so harder to cherry-pick the relevant fixes) + it's what other distros used, so well tested
Cons: + it's really late + 1.9.x seemed to work relatively okay for us so far
What do people think?
Dangerous. We are already on risk with using system cairo in Firefox instead the internal one as we miss mozilla specific patches but changing cairo now would basically invalidate all testing of Firefox in Factory for gfx output. (we can still switch to the internal packaged one short term if needed) Just keep that in mind when thinking about cairo.
