Cairo does not built on julia 0.7 Windows (x86_64-w64-mingw32)

[alblaz]

Building Cairo yields the error ERROR: LoadError: Provider WinRPM.RPM failed to satisfy dependency pangocairo. This is similar to what described in issues #230 and #239 but in that case the discussion was about OSX. I'm on Windows 10 (x86_64-w64-mingw32). I wonder if the error is a specific problem of my system or if it is a general problem at the moment that can be reproduced by other people.

The complete log I obtain when I build Cairo is the following

Might be specific to your system, appveyor succeeds in 0.7 (64bit) https://ci.appveyor.com/project/lobingera/cairo-jl-f7sfx

[alblaz]

Thanks @lobingera. I tried to remove Cairo and WinRPM from the folder .julia/packages and do a reinstall as it was suggested in other threads but I had no succcess. Do you have any suggestion to track and solve the problem?

[lobingera]

You could try a BinDeps debug https://github.com/JuliaPackaging/BinDeps.jl#diagnostics to see what BinDeps thinks is resolvable and not.

[alblaz]

Thanks @lobingera for your suggestion. Looks like the binaries required have been installed by WinRPM. I can in fact see them in a subfolder of ~.julia/Packages/WinRPM.

ls .julia\packages\WinRPM\Y9QdZ\deps\usr\x86_64-w64-mingw32\sys-root\mingw\bin\

gspawn-win64-helper-console.exe* libglib-2.0-0.dll* libpangowin32-1.0-0.dll* gspawn-win64-helper.exe* libgobject-2.0-0.dll* libpixman-1-0.dll* libcairo-2.dll* libharfbuzz-0.dll* libpng16-16.dll* libffi-6.dll* libintl-8.dll* libwinpthread-1.dll* libfontconfig-1.dll* libpango-1.0-0.dll* libxml2-2.dll* libfreetype-6.dll* libpangocairo-1.0-0.dll* zlib1.dll* libgcc_s_seh-1.dll* libpangoft2-1.0-0.dll*

But when I run BinDeps.debug("Cairo") it cannot find libpangocairo using the WinRPM.RPM provider although WinRPM succeed in providing the library libgobject-2.0-0.dll which is in the same folder. Any idea of what could be the cause? Find below the full report of BinDeps.debug.

[lobingera]

One thing i remember is, BinDeps is thinking, that ALL dependencies have to be resolved within the same provider. Looks' like above you have pangocairo as (only) system lib.

[alblaz]

Thanks for the suggestion @lobingera! After removing Inkscape and pdf2svg from the PATH environment variable Cairo.jl builds successfully.

BinDeps is not compatible with Julia 1.x. I have the same Cairo build problem and get this BinDeps error:

julia> using BinDeps
