It was originally added to make bisecting easier,
but has outlived its usefuleness now.
Going forward we'll have just a single cairo-version.h
header file, the one with the real version numbers.
This is needed to fix the case where cairo is being
built as a Meson subproject, but also simplifies
things in general.
Fixes#421
Run the command below suggested by geirha in ##sed@irc.freenode.net.

Looking back at past release announcements, it's been a long time since
we included the About Cairo bits. This info is easily located on the
website and elsewhere, no need for the redundant data in the
announcement too.
The document uses X.Y.Z to sometimes mean the previous release version,
and in other places to mean the upcoming next release version. Identify
these more explicitly.
That is, the vesion that appears as:
http://cairographics.org/manual
and:
http://cairographics.org/cairo-manual.tar.gz
It was silly that we previously required a manual step to
upload the documentation (which we regularly forgot to do)
and that it uploaded with a date in the name rather than a
version. So we just drop the old doc-publish Makefile target
now as it's just not useful anymore.
This avoids hitting driver-specific bugs in the X server, and is
better than doing 'DISPLAY= make distcheck' which simply disables
all xlib testing completely.
Quick summary of changes:
- Move list of cairo source files out of src/Makefile.am and into
src/Sources.mk,
- Generate files src/Config.mk and src/Config.mk.win32 that choose
the right set of source files and headers based on configured
backends and features. This drastically simplifies building
using other build systems. The src/Makefile.win32 file needs
to be updated to reflect these changes.
- Add README files to various directories,
- Add toplevel HACKING file.
The man page for GNU find says:
-not expr
Same as ! expr, but not POSIX compliant.
And actually, on e.g. NetBSD, "-not" is not supported.
This resolved the following bug:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10226
src/check-def.sh checks that the list of symbols exported is the same as the
list of symbols in cairo.def, ie. symbols in public header files. (except for
symbols starting with _cairo)
src/check-plt.sh checks that no PLT entries exist for local function calls.
This makes sure we keep the 'slim' annotations uptodate.
These two are defined as tests in src/ and will be run during "make distcheck".
However, they are skipped if the commands 'nm' and 'readelf' are not found.
(We don't really rely on any functionality of eu-readelf, so using readelf
proper which should be more commonlly installed.)
