I tried to reproduce it with 0.24.3 and 0.25 and it works fine without python3-gi-cairo installed (in both cases). > Gaupol doesn't use Cairo directly and never imports Cairo, but only > deals with a Cairo context in one normal Gtk callback, which is why I > have never declared anything needing some specific Cairo. > > I'm not familiar with the Cairo introspection and/or Python binding > situation, but if you agree, I guess "python3-gi-cairo" should be marked > as a dependency.
