Problem pre compiling on mac Mojave due to Cairo (I think)

[sdanthine]

Hello trying to use Queryverse, run into problem whent it is precompiling:

Below is the message I get from initial install of Queryverse. The problem is clearly first in Cairo. When I try to locally build Cairo, I get the following:
Get similar tasting error:
┌ Error: Error building Cairo:
│
│ signal (11): Segmentation fault: 11
│ in expression starting at /Users/sdanthine/.julia/packages/Cairo/CXPG1/deps/build.jl:165

│ Allocations: 19234553 (Pool: 19231774; Big: 2779); GC: 42

Funny thing is, managed to build it on one computer, not on the other. Both are Mac Mojave, both times initially Queryverse needed Cairo.

Error message when precompiling:

I have posted similar question on the Cairo git..
JuliaGraphics/Cairo.jl#271

[davidanthoff]

Yeah, Cairo.jl unfortunately breaks pretty regularly... I think the only real long term solution is that someone finishes JuliaGraphics/Cairo.jl#229... Which is a big job and not trivial at all.

[davidanthoff]

This should all work now.
