python3-rlpycairo: plugin for the ReportLab PDF Toolkit.

 This is a plugin for the ReportLab PDF Toolkit.
 which constructs rich PDF documents, and also creation
 of charts in a variety of bitmap and vector formats.
 .
 This plugin is intended to replace most of the usage of the
 libart based C extension _renderPM which has been shown to
 have issues when rendering complex documents.
 .
 This backend can be brought into use by setting
 reportlab.rl_config.renderPMBackend = 'rlPyCairo'
 any of the methods detailed in reportlab/rl_config.py
 can be used to accomplish this.
 .
 The new backend seems able to handle all the same behaviour as
 _renderPM and the only place where it seems inferior is in the
 rendering of scaled images and the speed with which it draws
 text.
 .
 At present the rlPyCairo backend only uses the _renderPM extension
 to use its mapping of ReportLab font names to extract paths for
 rendering this is no doubt the reason for its slowness when
 rendering text.
