Bugzilla Bug 155544

Just a request to get 1.2.4 stable. The only outstanding bugs is a request for
a patch that wasn't accepted upstream into the 1.2.x branch (I thought it was)
but appears to have been entirely redone and worked into the 1.3.x branch
(which will become 1.4.x)

This blocks gtk+ 2.10.x going stable. People should get better performance and
better fonts from 1.2.4 and higher then the current stable.

I'd like to have 1.2.4 stable for a bit and get a quick-ish 1.2.6 stablization
since it's probably the last version until 1.4.0

amd64 stable. and glitz 0.5.6 too

I forgot to note that media-libs/glitz-0.5.6 needs to be stabled as well.

@python herd: you might want to take a look at pycairo.

You definitely want to, since we're now running into Bug 149475

Stable on ppc

media-libs/glitz-0.5.6
1. emerges on x86
2. passes collision test

x11-libs/cairo-1.2.4  USE="X png svg -directfb -doc -glitz -pdf"
1. emerges on x86
2. passes collision test
3. x11-libs/libsvg-cairo-0.1.6 and x11-libs/gtk+-2.8.19 emerge fine with this
version. revdep-rebuild doesn't show anything broken. 

there is a problem with this package: dev-python/pycairo
it depends on "=x11-libs/cairo-1.0*" which will cause a downgrade, which should
be fixed first. (maybe there are more packages, I just spottet this one)

 Yes, see comment #3

sparc stable with pycairo-1.2.2.

x86 walks like an Egyptian.

glitz-0.5.6, cairo-1.2.4, pycairo-1.2.2 stable on ppc64

Upgrade from 1.0.4 to 1.2.4 on x86 breaks gtk+ font antialiasing. See #156188.

Run revdep-rebuild like the ebuild tells you to.

Stable on Alpha + ia64.

hppa stable with masked USE=glitz and nuked media-libs/glitz keywords (probably
some mistake since we only do fbdev thus rendering glitz unusable/untestable).

As stated on glitz page "The performance and capabilities of glitz are much
dependent on graphics hardware. Glitz does not in any way handle software
fall-backs when graphics hardware is insufficient. However, glitz will report
if any requested operation cannot be carried out by graphics hardware, hence
making a higher level software layer responsible for appropriate actions."

Pointless now.
