Title:
Surface.create_for_data: Not Implemented yet.
Status in py3cairo package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Kazam Screen caster, written in Python3, is using Cairo for doing
graphics. Now, I've run into this:
File "../kazam/frontend/window_countdown.py", line 181, in createDropShadow
surface = cairo.ImageSurface.create_for_data(data, format, width, height)
NotImplementedError: Surface.create_for_data: Not Implemented yet.
It appears that Surface.create_for_data isn't implemented. After
inspecting the weird code in the original tar.gz I confirmed this:
static PyObject *
image_surface_create_for_data (PyTypeObject *type, PyObject *args) {
cairo_surface_t *surface;
cairo_format_t format;
unsigned char *buffer;
int width, height, stride = -1, res;
Py_ssize_t buffer_len;
PyObject *obj;
// buffer function disabled
PyErr_SetString(PyExc_NotImplementedError, "Surface.create_for_data: Not
Implemented yet.");
return NULL; /* By BigW: Everything past here is dead code */
if (!PyArg_ParseTuple(args, "Oiii|i:Surface.create_for_data",
&obj, &format, &width, &height, &stride))
return NULL;
However, after checking couple of other repositories with pycairo,
create_for_data() function is different, without the weird return call.
I've checked:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/pycairo/
git://git.cairographics.org/git/pycairo
Can this patch from 2011 be included in Ubuntu?

And why am I the first one running into this? :)
