Hi,
PROBLEM
I have spent the last 10 hours trying to install Cairo on RedHat
Enterprise Linux 5.5 x86_64 without success.
Cairo returns this error during configuration: "configure: error:
mandatory image surface backend feature could not be enabled"
Please provide guidance on how to proceed from here.
WORK DONE SO FAR
Install dependencies first
these version were already installed:
libpng-devel 1.2.10
zlib-devel 1.2.3
libXrender-devel 0.9.1
fontconfig-devel 2.4.1
FYI
qpixman 0.13.3 was already installed (sounds like a variation of
pixman, I left it alone)
Cairo 1.2.4 was already installed (looks like a lot of other programs
depend on it, I left it alone)
Install pixman
cd /tmp
sudo tar -xzvf pixman-0.18.4.tar.gz
cd pixman-0.18.4
configure the package: sudo ./configure --exec-prefix=/usr/local/lib64
compile the package: sudo make
run verification tests: sudo make check (all 10 tests passed)
install the program: sudo make install
Results:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Libraries have been installed in:
/usr/local/lib64/lib
If you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries
in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and
specify the full pathname of the library, or use the `-LLIBDIR'
flag during linking and do at least one of the following:
- add LIBDIR to the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH' environment variable
during execution
- add LIBDIR to the `LD_RUN_PATH' environment variable
during linking
- use the `-Wl,-rpath -Wl,LIBDIR' linker flag
- have your system administrator add LIBDIR to `/etc/ld.so.conf'
See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for
more information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages.
