Description
When doing a --enable-static --disable-shared build of cairo-1.4.12, the resulting installed .pc files lack the Libs: dependencies. As a direct result, the 'configure' of pango (which depends on cairo) finds freetype and X11, but not cairo (it finds cairo, but all tests for functions in cairo fail). There should probably be a --enable-explicit-deps which should also be automatically enabled if --enable-static is present in configure (as there is in pango).
