I can't say. But the couple of posts I saw made me think that this
may have come from the "Cygwin Ports" site. I did find a "python-cairo"
package there. Perhaps that's what you're looking for?
Keep in mind that the "Cygwin Ports" site contains packages that are
_not_ currently part of the distribution. Use at your own peril. ;-)
