Fedora: 2006-161 Critical Advisory: Cairo Package Fixes Pango Crash

fedora
Calendar Grey April 7, 2006
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Revised cairo package rectifies various glitches, improving visual rendering and overall system performance.
An updated version of the cairo package fixes several bugs, among them a bug which could lead to Pango crashes with corrupt fonts.

Summary

Cairo is a vector graphics library designed to provide high-quality

display and print output. Currently supported output targets include

the X Window System, OpenGL (via glitz), in-memory image buffers, and

image files (PDF and PostScript). Cairo is designed to produce

identical output on all output media while taking advantage of display

hardware acceleration when available (eg. through the X Render

Extension or OpenGL).

An updated version of the cairo package fixes several bugs,

among them a bug which could lead to Pango crashes with

corrupt fonts.
