[news.eclipse.platform.swt] Re: Ubuntu and GMF

["Anthony Hunter" <anthonyh@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

I am wondering if an option is to try replacing the 1.2.4-1ubuntu2 with the 
libcairo-swt.so and see if that resolves the issue. Then we will know that 
the new or old version of cairo is the issue.

I am not sure which version of cairo is included in libcairo-swt.so , but I 
think that Eclipse is likely using the 1.2.4-1ubuntu2 rather than the one 
provided with Eclipse. Not if you "ldd eclipse", the cairo library is not 
listed as a dependant library, so I am not sure how to tell which cairo SWT 
is finding.

I have added the Eclipse platform SWT newgroup to see if this is a known 
issue.

Cheers...
Anthony

I cannot tell
