Hi Andrew,

Thanks!  I think I originally installed (older versions of) the Gentoo 
packages, which sorted out some dependencies for me, but then I ran into 
a bug which you guys fixed within about 24 hours, so I had to use CVS to 
continue.  I see that there are updated Gentoo packages now, and I'll 
give them a try soon.

By the way, I'm giving a presentation at FOSDEM 2006 about my success 
getting JFreeChart to run with GNU Classpath and Cairo.  I've tweaked a 
couple of things in my CairoGraphics2D class and I'm getting some really 
nice output now - I'll put the presentation and all the details online 
after FOSDEM (at the end of the month).  I'm happy to contribute the 
CairoGraphics2D code to cairo-java if you think it fits (I think it does).

Keep up the good work!

Dave
