Building kaffe with Cairo is on the Debian Kaffe Road Map

We can currently only use cairo 0.3.0. The 0.4.0 in Debian doenst work.
When the cairo API stabilizes in CVS and a new version is in Debian we
can activate this.
Yes, that was kaffe cvs against a local cario 3.0 installation.
Well, until the API stabilizes and then arrives in Debian and all that
... I think that will need some more time.
Therefore, I would propose as soon as sarge is out to upload the
needed ant 1.6.3 to unstable and build libxalan2-java temporarily
without the manual (which makes problems) and later, if kaffe/cairo
combination works, adding the manual back.
This way we can go on with moving packages to main. As xalan2 is
the main problem I think this temporarily solution can be accepted.
We can for some time adding a note to the README.Debian so people
know to have a look at the xalan2 webpage for the manual.
What do you think ?
I tried also with a local built kaffe with the cairo Graphics2D
implementation. This fails with the following exception:
[java] [StyleBook] Caught java.lang.ClassCastException

I hope our free classpath folks are reading... :-D
This is at least fixed in GNU classpath CVS and most probably in kaffe CVS
already too. I havent checked kaffe CVS.
Well, seems not yet - that was yesterdays kaffe cvs.
