Not easy to know what's happening there.
You might try:
julia> quit()
julia> Pkg.rm("Cairo");Pkg.rm("Cairo");
julia> Pkg.add("Cairo")
julia> Pkg.build("Cairo")
julia> quit()
julia> using Cairo
if there are error messages, post 'em
otherwise do the same substituting "Tk" for "Cairo"
if there are error messages, post 'em
