Cairo version 1.040 =================== Perl bindings to the cairo graphics library (http://www.cairographics.org). INSTALLATION ------------ To install this module type the following: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install To avoid installing to a system directory, if you don't have root access, you can change the installation prefix at Makefile.PL time with perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/some/other/place This will install the module to the subdirectory lib/perl5 under the given prefix. If this is not already in perl's include path, you'll need to tell perl how to get to this library directory so you can use it; there are three ways: in your environment (the easiest): # assuming a bourne-style shell PERL5LIB=/some/other/place/lib/perl5/site_perl export PERL5LIB on the perl command line: perl -I /some/other/place/lib/perl5/site_perl yourscript in the code of your perl script: use lib '/some/other/place/lib/perl5/site_perl'; DEPENDENCIES ------------ This module requires these other modules and libraries: cairo (C library) >= 1.0.0 In order to build it from source, you'll also need ExtUtils::PkgConfig (perl module) ExtUtils::Depends (perl module) BUG REPORTS ----------- Please report bugs to the gnome-perl product in GNOME's Bugzilla: COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE --------------------- Copyright (C) 2004-2007 by the cairo perl team Ross McFarland rwmcfa1 at neces dot com Torsten Schoenfeld kaffeetisch at gmx dot de This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU Library General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2.1 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
