That explains a lot :)

Ok, fyi, when we speak about installing 'from the source', we mean from a CVS repo,
which in this case is git:

	http://www.nongnu.org/guile-cairo/dev/

	[ what you mean when you refer to 1.9, is actually what we call 'from the
	[ tarball'

I really really recommand you to install guile-cairo from the source, it is so easy,
and you'll play with the latest stable which has been last updated in 2014, not in
2011.

Cheers,
David
