Bug Description

The libmono2.0-cairo-cli package does not ship with a .pc file, which causes some programs (such as banshee) to choke when attempting to build.

Mono should ship two different pkgconfig files for Mono.Cairo 1.0 and Mono.Cairo 2.0, both specifying the complete path to the assembly.
-r:something would only make gmcs look in /usr/lib/mono/2.0, mcs in 1.0

Sorry, I'm unable to reproduce with modern Mono - it's normal not to supply a pkg-config file for 1.0 and 2.0 versions of a library, the error seems to be happening due to a failure to correctly remap 1.0 library references to 2.0 when gmcs is compiling (which is certainly not the case today), and the apps in question do not show this bug when building. Rejecting.

I'm still experiencing this error whenever trying to build something that needs mono-cairo. Any developements?
