Created attachment 337056 [details, diff] patch http://cgit.freedesktop.org/cairo/commit/?id=b8f43617a98aeb6c10d554ed11b48a83fc9b5129 ^ causes the test suite to always be built, for the convenience of one developer. Attached patch removes this, saving a bunch of time. We're already running eautoreconf anyway. After doing the patch I tried to confirm that the test suite still ran, only to find that it's explicitly disabled. So, there's /really/ no reason to be building the test suite. Before and after ebuild compile times on my sandybridge 2500. 97.85s user 17.07s system 183% cpu 1:02.72 total 74.80s user 12.48s system 160% cpu 54.490 total Build times are reduced by minutes on slower machines.
Done with 1.12.12 version bump.
