I notice that we have an explicit dependency between Cairo and X11 in configure:
-----
if test "x$enable_X11" != "xyes"; then
AC_MSG_WARN([X11 headers not found, Cairo/X11 back-end disabled])
hwloc_cairo_happy=no
fi
-----
Is there any reason for this?
I ask because my Mac (Lion) has Cairo installed via MacPorts, but it doesn't
find XOpenDisplay in -lX11, and so it disables X11 support (which is fine), but
that also disables Cairo support (which is a bummer).
Indeed, I manually disabled this extra check in configure, and I can still seem
to use Cairo in lstopo (e.g., generate PDFs and PNGs).
Are there some platforms where linking Cairo depends on X11? If so, is there a
way we can discover that in configure? (because Cairo doesn't seem to need X11
on OS X for just outputting PDFs and PNGs)
