As I have not followed the discussion, my reply may be unhelpful... >From what I understand from the page http://www.cairographics.org/bindings/ the bindings are separate packages, which then also holds for pycairo. Nix has a separate pycairo package, and we would need to add one. The cairo package itself does not contain any bindings. Python is used as a native input; maybe for tests? So I would expect both python 2 and python 3 bindings to work with our cairo package. Andreas

Maybe that's the package causing some troubles. http://cairographics.org/pycairo/ Thanks for looking into this! Fede
