dev-haskell/cairo fails to configure an build. Attached is my system configuration. Not sure if this should go here or upstream. -darkseer /usr/bin/pkg-config --modversion cairo-svg /usr/bin/pkg-config --modversion cairo setup: Missing dependency on a foreign library: * Missing C library: cairo This problem can usually be solved by installing the system package that provides this library (you may need the "-dev" version).

It would also be helpful to know what version (if any) of x11-libs/cairo you have installed.
The issue was not with cairo this can be closed. The configure was failing because GCC was not able to produce binaries. The major issue was that some upgrade succeeded but somehow interfered with GCC and bintools. I resolved the issue by creating a GCC package on another box with the correct use flags and reinstalling GCC as a binary package along with bintools. There is a bug somewhere... I'm just not sure A) What whacked GCC and B) how to reproduce.... So while there is a deficiency... I no longer have enough info to file a report :/ On the plus side I do have a solution when GCC and bintools bites it for no apparent reason. -darkseer
