I had minor problem compiling cairomm. I am using Slackware distribution and forgot to install pthread-stubs package. Configure script silently created Makefiles but without proper include and linking paths. Problem is that when I manually executed pkg-config --cflags cairo I received complaints about missing pthread-stubs package but configure script didn't detect this. Probably detecting this during confuguration phase would solve problem..

I don't know Slackware, but I guess it should make sure that a package's dependencies are installed. > but configure script didn't detect this.

In addition, this might be a pkg-config bug that you might report, though I am sure that I have seen errors from PKG_CHECK_MODULES() in the rare cases that a dependency does not have its own dependencies present. So far I don't feel like adding special code to work around this in gtkmm upstream.
Please reopen if this is still a problem that we should fix in cairomm. I'd also like to know if slackware fixed it in their packaging.
