For 3.6 it includes '/usr/pkg/lib/python3.6/site-packages' and for 2.7
it includes '/usr/pkg/lib/python2.7/site-packages'. The py-cairo files
are in the 3.6 site-packages. There are no Cairo files in the 2.7
Python directory.
I'm not sure why that matters though. It's the system libraries that it
can't find unless having py-cairo installed is somehow blocking the
search for the libraries.
Of course, my actual use depends on a cairo package. In fact, the
failure that led me to the above issue happens when I load cairocffi.
$ python3.6 -c "import cairocffi"
Traceback (most recent call last):

cairo = dlopen(ffi, 'cairo', 'cairo-2')
