[Mono-devel-list] System.Drawing.RectangleF problem

[Peter Dennis Bartok]

I just commited a bunch of patches for gdiplus that remove the dependency on 
a particular cairo version, and the latest cvs libgdiplus version should no 
longer give you any problems. However, if I am wrong, please let me know :-)
