It appears that at some point something else that I installed uninstalled libpangocairo (while leaving pango in place without it). I then reinstalled pango and ended up in the same place; although that may be a quirk in a specific version of pango?

I then cvsup'ed my ports tree and installed pango again. With that install I got libpangocairo back. Exactly why it was gone I have no idea.

This all came about because I wanted to update thunderbird, but I fell into dependency hell. My eventual solution was to format all my partitions (except for /home) and install 8.1-release. Now life is good again and I have a newer version of KDE4 than I would have had if I had stayed put.
