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.
