-
-git clone git://git.cairographics.org/git/cairo
-
- will include a signed 1.8.6 tag which points to a commit named:

-
- which can be verified with:
-git verify-tag 1.8.6
-
- and can be checked out with a command such as:
-git checkout -b build 1.8.6
-
-The cairo community is pleased to announce the 1.8.6 release of the
-cairo graphics library. This is the third update to cairo's stable
-1.8 series and contains a small number of bug fixes (in particular a
-few fixes for failures of cairo 1.8.4 on Quartz and PDF, and build fixes
-for a couple of backends). This is being released just under a month
-after cairo 1.8.4.
-
-We recommend that everyone using cairo upgrade to 1.8.6.

-Build fixes
------------
-Fix build of DirectFB backend with debugging enabled:
-
- Bug in _cairo_directfb_surface_release_source_image function
- http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18322
-
-Fix build on OS/2.
-
-Bug fixes
----------
-Workaround a mis-compilation of cairo_matrix_invert() that generated
-invalid matrices and triggered assertion failures later. The issue was
-reported by Peter Hercek.
-
-Invalid computation of the modulus:
-
- https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=466258
-
-Invalid referencing of patterns in the Quartz backend:
-
- Failed assertion `CAIRO_REFERENCE_COUNT_HAS_REFERENCE
- (&pattern->ref_count)' when using cairo quartz backend
- http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18632
-
-Invalid references to glyphs after early culling, causing segmentation
-faults in the PDF backend:
-
-http://lists.cairographics.org/archives/cairo/2008-December/015976.html
-
-Check for XRender in the XCB backend, or else we may attempt an invalid
-memory access:
-
- XCB backend fails with missing render.
