Reportlab 4.0.0 added dependency to pycairo #376

Closed danielrivard closed 1 year ago

danielrivard commented 1 year ago

It appears that the latest version of reportlab (released May 4th) has added a dependency to pycairo, requiring lib cairo to be installed on the system.

This was my main point to use svglib in the first place, to not need that dependency.

I was able to workaround it by adding the last 3.X version to my requirements file. reportlab==3.6.13

Otherwise, I get errors of pip trying to build the pycairo wheel and not finding the packages on my system.

Thank you for raising your first issue! Your help to improve svglib is much appreciated!

That was the right move, that is pinning the reportlab dep on your side. Duplicate of #375.

Sorry I had missed there was another issue for this.

Thanks.
