Package: libcairo2-dev
Version: 1.18.4-1+b1
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: ano...@soe.ucsc.edu

Dear Maintainer,

I'm trying to build software that statically links against libcairo.
However, apparently since the change to the meson build system, the
Debian cairo package doesn't build the libcairo.a static library, and
libcairo2-dev does not include it in the package anymore.

Can it be addedd back?

On the downstream Ubuntu bug for this at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cairo/+bug/2110074 it was
mentioned that adding --default-library=static to the build command line
somehow might fix this.

Thanks,
-Adam
