Therefore, it is included in the build. You should only use hippocanvas if you know that what you are doing would be more difficult without it. For your case, I recommend plain Cairo instead. - --Ben -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - <a href="http://enigmail.mozdev.org"> http://enigmail.mozdev.org</a> iD8DBQFHaqxEUJT6e6HFtqQRAjSTAJ9MM+pum4Vrc3JlAPltiElTl5UzuwCfYAw9 flH6iLtdu4N+xw4ow6jsyL4= =tylP -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Sugar mailing list <a href="mailto:Sugar@lists.laptop.org">Sugar@lists.laptop.org</a> <a href="http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/sugar">http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/sugar</a> </blockquote></div>
