Hi,


This is my first post to cairographics mailing list ... apologies if I did something \
wrong.


I think there might be a bug in the configure script.  I tried to configure with


    configure --prefix=/users/my/home/directory/something


My PKG_CONFIG_PATH is also full of absolute paths.


I'm seeing lots of things in the config.log file that look like


CAIRO_LIBS='    $(top_builddir)//users/my/home/directory/something/pixman/libpixman-1.la



There are other things with the same pattern in them.  Actually, all of them seem to \
come from the "pixman" entry in PKG_CONFIG_PATH, so that's probably the problem, not \
the --prefix.


This incorrect path ends up in the Makefiles, where top_builddir is set to "." or \
"..", so of course this causes the makes to fail.


I get this with 1.12.14, also 1.10.2.


Thanks,
Adam
