[Bug 299239] [NEW] cairoDevice crashes on initialization

[Patrick Wagstrom]

Public bug reported:

The version of r-cran-cairodevice (2.8-1) for i386 on Intrepid crashes
when the command Cairo is called within R.  Here's a simple way to
reproduce:

> library(cairoDevice)
> Cairo(width = 7, height = 7, pointsize = 10, surface = "screen", filename = NULL)

 *** caught segfault ***
address 0xdd5f3a5, cause 'memory not mapped'

It should put a graphics window on the desktop.  Downloading the most
recent (2.9-2) code from
http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/cairoDevice/index.html and
installing that over the .deb seems to fix the problem.  So maybe it's
just something weird with 2.8-1.
