Cairo version 0.5.6 builds successfully in Linux but not in OSX.

Could you show a successful build with 0.5.5?

I'm also on OSX, and have the same issue. Building on v0.5.5 fails as well.

as does building 0.5.4 (with the same error).

Building 0.5.3 also fails, but for another reason:

[lobingera]

then it's mostlikely #271

[asinghvi17]

Yep, looks like it. Will post build output there when I get the time, thanks!

[asinghvi17]

So @daviehh's solution worked. Thanks! @ppalmes you should take a look here:

#271 (comment)

[ppalmes]

upon more investigations, i noticed that i didn't have cairo in the previous releases and it was added recently when I installed Queryverse which installed Vegalite which installed Cairo.

Travis build fails and my local mac Pkg.build("Cairo") also fails.

I stand corrected when I said previous version was successful in mac.

[daviehh]

you may also try Cario#master, since this segfault is potentially caused by dlopen/dlclose with glib; master has this PR #274 which basically skips the dlclose. Note if you have system-wide homebrew's glib, you may need to brew unlink glib in terminal outside julia repl before build and revert by brew link glib after the build finishes.

[ppalmes]

thanks @daviehh. it made me rethink what causes it and realized that using Queryverse loaded so many packages including Cairo which i don't necessarily need. i just needed FileIO, CSVFiles, and FeatherFiles which Queryverse reimports/reexports for common save/load API to different file formats. I removed Queryverse which removed so many deps including Cairo ;)

[sbacelar]

I think I have the same problem also on macOS 10.14.4:

What can I do? I have reinstalled cairo using Homebrew without success.

[daviehh]

@sbacelar should be ok in the latest version, try ]up?
current version is ]st

[159f3aea] Cairo v0.6.0

[sbacelar]

@daviehh Yes I did ]up without success. Using ]st I see that my Cairo version is v0.5.6. Is it possible to install Cairo v0.6.0?

[daviehh]

@sbacelar one reason for ]up not updating Cairo might be another package pins Cairo to v0.5.6; if you are comfortable doing some editing, you may go to ~/.julia/packages/Cairo/CXPG1/deps/ to edit the build.jl file: basically put

Cairo.jl/deps/build.jl

Lines 7 to 15 in 3d781a7

	if Sys.isapple()
	deps_file_str = open(joinpath(dirname(pathof(BinDeps)), "dependencies.jl")) do file
	read(file, String)
	end
	if occursin("ZEval",pathof(BinDeps))
	patched_dlclose = replace(deps_file_str, "Libdl.dlclose(h)" => "println(\"ignored: dlclose()\")")
	include_string(BinDeps,patched_dlclose)
	end
	end

after import Compat.Sys and before @BinDeps.setup

[sbacelar]

@daviehh I edited the build.jl file but after doing ]up Cairo version stays the same v0.5.6. But I think you were right: after removing Agents.jl package it was possible to update Cairo to 0.6.0. But now I can't install Agents.jl.
