I'm new to Cairo and I'm attempting to build the latest version (1.6.4) from 
source on a CentOS 4.4 kernel: 
 
[root@corp03 pixman-0.10.0]# uname -r 
2.6.9-42.ELsmp 
 
When I run a ./configure --prefix=/usr I get 
... 
... 
... 
... 
checking for pkg-config... /usr/local/bin/pkg-config 
checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes 
checking for pixman... no 
configure: error: pixman >= 0.10.0 is required 
(http://cairographics.org/releases/) 
 
From looking at the configure shell script, it appears that the pixman_CFLAGS is 
not being set. This makes configure fail at or rear line 21388. I've try setting 
the pixman_CFLAGS environment variable, but configure doesn't seem to recognize 
it. I'm not sure what to do next and I really need this to work...please help. 
See additional info below: 
 
 
Pixman is built here:

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
Libraries have been installed in: 
   /usr/lib 
 
If you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries 
in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and 
specify the full pathname of the library, or use the `-LLIBDIR' 
flag during linking and do at least one of the following: 
   - add LIBDIR to the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH' environment variable 
     during execution 
   - add LIBDIR to the `LD_RUN_PATH' environment variable 
     during linking 
   - use the `-Wl,--rpath -Wl,LIBDIR' linker flag 
   - have your system administrator add LIBDIR to `/etc/ld.so.conf' 
 
See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for 
more information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages.
