[cairo] pangocairo make error

Hi,

The cairo functions cairo_ft_font_face_create_for_pattern() and
cairo_ft_font_options_substitute() are available when libcairo
is built with fontconfig (see cairo-ft.h).

Considering that pango's FreeType2 backend is designed to use
both of FreeType2 and fontconfig (see configure.in of pango),
thus, what I can recommend is:
1) install fontconfig
2) rebuild cairo to use fontconfig
3) rebuild pango to use fontconfig-enabled cairo

Regards,
mpsuzuki
