[igraph] installing pycairo for igraph support

[Jordan Atlas]

I'm having trouble getting plots to work in iGraph.  From the thread here:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/igraph-help/2008-09/msg00047.html

.. i'm led to believe that this is because I don't have cairo installed.  When I download  pycairo 1.8.2 and attempt to run 'setup.py install', I get the error:

C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\pycairo-1.8.2>python setup.py install
Package cairo was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `cairo.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'cairo' found

Error: cairo >= 1.8.2 not found

Can someone explain what it's looking for, and where I can get it?

Thanks,

--Jordan
