Does anyone have reproducile tests that show the problems in Firefox/Thunderbird with cairo when cairo is built with --enable-xcb?
I just built cairo with: --enable-xcb --enable-xlib-xcb=no
This should leave the normal cairo xlib backend intact (i.e. the same as when built with --disable-xcb). So far everything is working fine for me, but even before, with Cairo 1.8 everything was working fine, so I'd like to doublecheck about those issues.
Upstream does not support it and still marks the XCB backend as experimental. Though some work has been done on the backend for 1.10, there's no dedicated maintainer for it. I simply don't want that in official packages.
