Bug Description

The latest version of cairo has an api change that causes problems. The api changes of latest cairo (1.5.14) broke the CAIRO_FONT_TYPE_ATSUI symbol. This change led to problems such as Bug 205701.

An upstream git commit fixes this problem:
http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=cairo;a=commit;h=9a1f7bbc357ecce351b459f883b4ebeaa6640b65

I am not sure when cairo will have a new release. So we may need to patch the version in hardy.
