I can get source code to get build a few hours ago. Could it be a Cairo 1.10 landing related bug, bug #562746

Looks like bug #526476 is related to this bug. http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/diff/acb4e51fa8a6/gfx/cairo/cairo/src/Makefile.in 1.120 + cat cairo-dwrite-font.i | gzip | python -c "import base64,sys; base64.encode(sys.stdin,sys.stdout)"

Yes, sorry that stuff should be taken out.

I could work around it renaming python -> python2. Anyway, if this bug wasn't mean to be landed...

Thanks for the quick fix !

I had to backout this bug because I needed to backout the Cairo update itself. I will reland this if we decide to reland the Cairo update patch as it is. http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/08af2892e17c
