hi all,
building inkscape on os x fails today because :

I don't have cairo on my system yet so this is not surprising but ./ configure lets me go into making without warning for anything. If not having cairo breaks the build there should be a configure check or a switch (--with[out]-cairo).
I like the idea of the check. But really, IMHO, Cairo should be here to stay. So I'm less in favor of the switch. We have been talking about more integration with Cairo for a very, very long time. And not just for PDF. After 0.45 and according to the discussion we had earlier, we will start depending on gtk2.8, thus we will have a Cairo dependency anyway. So the check only needs to be around for a few months.
Just my 2pf again. Please ignore. I'll go back to my cave now. :-)
