Bug#611692: cairo: Please enable GL support
Source: cairo
Version: 1.10.2-1
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
it would be nice if you could enable GL support, which means:
| --enable-gl=[no/auto/yes]
| Enable cairo's OpenGL surface backend feature
That GL support, even if it's experimental, is needed for wayland:
http://bugs.debian.org/611400
http://wayland.freedesktop.org/
http://wayland.freedesktop.org/building.html
(AFAICT, xcb is already enabled, at least in the main build.)
wayland-related packages are targeted at experimental, so enabling it
only in experimental would be far sufficient as a first step.
Currently, I've only tried locally-built cairo, from git master; please
let me know if a tested patch (maybe against your debian-experimental
branch) would help.
Thanks for considering.
KiBi.
