26 |
|

unfortunately I have to use cairo-1.12.6 since 1.12.2-r4 scrambles my |

printing of PDF files (it's completely unusable). |

There might be a fix for NX at |

There is a Debian source package at |
34 |
http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=nx-libs.git;a=snapshot;h=5a640efd1002d5fadff72542afb8e00bd14bcb6e;sf=tgz |
35 |
|
36 |
but I'd need help for using that for NX or I have to switch to X2GO. |
