Cairo 1.00

Cairo package contains Perl bindings to the cairo graphics library.

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 dont 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 perls include path, youll 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;
