I 'm trying to upgrade cairo from version to 1.12.8 on a gnome-3.7.1 platform running slackware.   The build goes fine except for the load of anytoppm.   I get:

make[5]: Entering directory `/home/ronis/Project/notar/GNOME/garnome/freedesktop/cairo/work/main.d/cairo-1.12.8/test'
  CCLD   any2ppm
libtool: link: cannot find the library `/opt/garnome-3.7/lib/libcairo.la' or unhandled argument `/opt/garnome-3.7/lib/libcairo.la'
make[5]: *** [any2ppm] Error 1

This has to happen because cairo hasn't been installed yet.   Shouldn't the test be linked against some local version of the lib?

Oops, I forgot to add the earlier version number, it's 1.12.4.
