Problem with Cairo building

New to Julia

Sorry for putting this problem here but I am desperate.
After a fresh Julia installation on macOS Mojave I added only one package Agents and then I got the same (old) problem with Cairo:

 Building Cairo ───────────→ `~/.julia/packages/Cairo/CXPG1/deps/build.log`

I think I am not really alone with this, problem. Any suggestion?

Have you tried some of the suggested work rounds in the Cairo.jl issues?

3

Well, I opened the same issue in Cairo.jl but I couldn’t see any work round to overcome this error.

4

This should be fixed on the master version, try ]add Cairo#master.

current master is equal to the released version.

6

Now it worked with ]add Cairo#master.

Please see my comment below.

what version of Cairo do you get if you free Cairo?

9 
(v1.1) pkg> free Cairo
 Resolving package versions...
  Updating `~/.julia/environments/v1.1/Project.toml`
  [159f3aea]   Cairo v0.6.0
  Updating `~/.julia/environments/v1.1/Manifest.toml`
  [159f3aea]   Cairo v0.6.0

and now it still works?

Here you can see that master is really not different from v0.6.0

But it does not build:
