libcairo problems?

After rebooting my machine today, I ran into a lot of problems; it
turned out that a number of apps using the updated libcairo (I _think_
it was updated early this week?), like Evolution and Firefox, were
randomly crashing due to not finding a symbol ("evolution: symbol lookup
error: /usr/lib/libcairo.so.2: undefined symbol:
FT_GlyphSlot_Embolden"). I finally had to manually download and install
libcairo 1.0.2-0ubuntu1 to fix it.

Anybody else seen the same issue?
