    <p>I am working on a headless ubuntu machine with most of the cairo requirements preinstalled, but I am stumbling on getting R to use Cairo. Does anyone know what flags or additional packages I need to set/install in order to have install.packages build Cairo correctly with the existing installs of its dependencies? The tricks: <strong>I cannot use sudo commands or apt-get</strong>, and additional software must involve &lt;50Mb of memory. Is this possible? It looks like most everything I need is present, if I can wire it into R.</p> <pre><code>&gt; library('Cairo') Error in library("Cairo") : there is no package called ‘Cairo’ &gt; install.packages('Cairo') ... * installing *source* package ‘Cairo’ ... ... checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config configure: CAIRO_CFLAGS=/usr/lib:/usr/bin:/usr/include checking if R was compiled with the RConn patch... no checking cairo.h usability... no checking cairo.h presence... no checking for cairo.h... no configure: error: Cannot find cairo.h!

    2. COIf you just need cairo.h, why are you building cairo yourself instead of just installing libcairo2-dev?

    3. COAs the second block of text indicates, I am trying to install that package, but hitting a dependency error. The commenter above was correct in pixman needing development headers as well.

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
