[Python-modules-team] Bug#653588: python-cairo: version 1.8.8 is too old to use with PyGI(GObject Introspection)

[Shyouzou Sugitani]

Package: python-cairo
Version: 1.8.8-1+b2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Some of the Gdk3 API requires support of cairo Regions(new in 1.10).
Version 1.8.8 is too old to use with PyGI(Gobject Introspection).
Please consider updating to new upstream version 1.10.x.

$ python
>>> from gi.repository import Gtk
>>> win = Gtk.Window()
>>> darea = Gtk.DrawingArea()
>>> win.add(darea)
>>> darea.realize()
>>> darea.get_window().get_visible_region()
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gi/types.py", line 43, in function
    return info.invoke(*args, **kwargs)
TypeError: Couldn't find conversion for foreign struct 'cairo.Region'
