For a Munin 2.0.x port I encountered the problem that cairo with it quartz backend ignores the fontconfig backend that recognizes the fonts that macports installs.
Summary: - Munin uses rrdtool, rrdtool expects DejaVuSans and DejaVuSansMono. They are both replaced by helvetica. - For rrdtool an environment variable PANGOCAIRO_BACKEND=fc solves this. - Munin also has a cgi interface, so in Apache config the same SetEnv is needed. Discussion: - In the cairo Portfilevariant +quartz is enforced, that is what is causing my problems. - I cannot find a single need for quartz that wouldn't be provided for by fontconfig, and fontconfig is the standard for the world outside Mac. - So I propose to change the enforced backend in cairo from quartz to fontconfig. - port echo depends:cairo gives only 132 results ;-)
