De : Johan Engelen <jbc.engelen@...2592...> The current version of Cairo in devlibs is 1.11.2. How much trouble is it to upgrade this to 1.12.x, or do we want to wait for a cairo release with our bugs fixed? Upgrading now would fix a very long standing export bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/759154.
I recently managed to build 1.12.8 on Windows XP without any problem, but didn't commit it to the devlibs because I wasn't sure there were no regressions. Tests with 1.12.14 are in progress. If there's no objection, I can commit it when it's done, or wait until the downscaling patch is accepted.
Test version for win32 (trunk revision 12262 with Cairo-1.12.14 and Pixmal-0.28.2) available here: ftp://download.tuxfamily.org/inkscape/
It works fine for me (not a whole lot of testing). I'm ok with committing it to devlibs. Why not :) worst thing that happens is we have to revert it :)
Thanks for the good work, Cheers, Johan
