Hi Josselin, Dave Beckett has worked on producing the libcairo packages (with and without directfb backend enabled) and an experimental version is available in [1]. We've tested it and used it for testing a patch which adds the directfb backend to gtk+ 2.8.17/18 (you can get the patch from [2]). There are still a couple of minor issues which need to be sorted out before cairo is ready to be uploaded to the archives (see [3]) and what we still are unsure about is if a libcairo-directfb-dev.deb package should be produced along with the other (u)debs. We think there's everything you need to produce gtk+-directfb packages; it's not officially available yet, but packaging could be done anyway and would help the d-i team to start working on migrating from old libraries to new ones. Your help is thoroughly appreciated, TIA, Davide [1] http://download.dajobe.org/debian/experimental/ [2] http://www.webalice.it/zinosat/gtk+-directfb_2.8.17.patch.gz [3] http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2006/06/msg01036.html [4] http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2006/06/msg01036.html
