I am a new Julia user 'want to be'.
On a computer that has never seen Julia before I made a fresh installation 
of Julia-0.3.0.
I wanted to follow a hands on tutorial which included some plots that 
required the Cairo package.
The very first instruction that I wrote on Julia's console was:
Pkg.add("Cairo")

The operation failed.
What should I do?
I would appreciate any help.

What follows is a copy of Julia's console:
