I know it's an obvious question, but the build log [1] looks ok:

Checking the needed glyphs on the spellchecker page [1], looks like
the following glyphs are missing from ja.ttf files:

Hi Dave,
To build the -directfb-dev package you can use the following options:
"--disable-xlib --disable-ps --disable-pdf --enable-directfb=yes"
As soon as you've something ready to test, I'll use it to try and compile
the gtk+-directfb_2.8.17 packages, which is the last bit of the endless
stack
Hey Dave,
> In the meanwhile I can test your udeb.
Good news: I've run some tests and looks like the udeb is working fine!!
I grabbed a g-i image [1] created by Attilio and based on recent libs,

when switching to VT2 (CTRL-ALT-F2) the frontend crashes;
this is known to happen on AMD64 only.
A similar bug (#339379) was fixed a while ago on i3386;
on AMD64 the crash happens also if the frontend is not busy
when the switch happens.

Hi Josselin,
Dave Beckett has worked on producing the libcairo packages (with
and without directfb backend enabled) and an experimental version
is available in [1]. We've tested it and used it for testing a
patch which adds the directfb backend to gtk+ 2.8.17/18 (you can get
the patch from [2]).
