You are right, this won't work on a clean installation.

It's also required to download and build and install the latest pixman
from here: http://cairographics.org/releases/pixman-0.18.4.tar.gz

./configure --prefix=$HOME
make
make install

Then run the following command to install the development files for
various cairo dependencies like libpng, freetype, etc.:

sudo apt-get build-dep cairo

Finally

PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$HOME/lib/pkgconfig ./configure --prefix=$HOME

to pick up the newly built and installed pixman.

After that it should compile nicely.
