For extra excitement this time, you'll need cairo from cvs, or the snapshot
available here:

This is less than ideal, but at least it allows us to test GNOME tarballs 
that require it. Cairo 0.6.0 is expected very soon.


TESTING! TESTING! TESTING!
--------------------------

This release is a feature frozen snapshot primarily intended for wide public
scrutiny before the final GNOME 2.12 release in September. GNOME uses odd minor 
version numbers to indicate development status. Please check the 2.11 page 
for more info:

Happy testing!
