> Why does it matter to the Python bindings whether Cairo is built with
+x11 or +Quartz?
I don't know the inner workings of the package. I just see that it does
because it's using the cairo_xlib_surface_get_depth function from
libcairo, so presumably, it's making a python binding for that function.
If they wanted, they could just make the optional symbols weak and check
for availability at runtime, but that is beyond the scope of MacPorts.
I think we just need to add an x11 variant and hopefully there is
functionality in py-cairo to disable support for the X11 backend even if
it's available in the base cairo.
