Huh, I don't know how I didn't notice that. I'm sorry about that.

I didn't know how to run them, so I found a basic example program which 
I run to test pycairo instead. I've found that that works, and "import 
cairo._cairo" works, and 1.29.0 works as I tested it using the wxPython 
demo, but the tests as you ran them above also don't work for me with 
the current version I haven't yet properly tested my build of the 
current version, but I guess this is superfluous now that I know there's 
already a package for it. Given the module can be imported and a basic 
program runs (see attached), I assume this is a problem with the test suite?

I assume we should remove my version of the package and somehow make 
that name link to your version, given it's a duplicate? I don't know how 
to go about doing that. Sorry once again.
