Valentin, you may need to install some cairo library packages through your package manager first. Make sure to select the -dev versions if they’re available!

Hi there. I am trying to cabal install cairo but i get this error everytime:

setup: The pkg-config package cairo-pdf is required but it could not be found.
cabal: Error: some packages failed to install:
cairo-0.12.1 failed during the configure step. The exception was:
ExitFailure 1

I am using Ubuntu! Any help?

i tried the gtk, downloaded / installed the gtk bundle. i then followed instructions on here to install gtk2hs
it compiled and linked fine, but then when i try the World demo i get ”
The procedure entry point g_get_environ could not be located in the dynamic link library libglib-2.0.0.dll”

i have haskell platform with ghci 7.0.4 installed.
also when i load World.hs into haskell i get this:
Loading package gio-0.12.1 … can’t load .so/.DLL for: libgio-2.0-0 (addDLL: could not load DLL)
