Missing library called 'libcairo.so.2' #223

@CameronBrooks11

Description

@CameronBrooks11

When I go to run any of the example .py files I get a module error: "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'gerber'". I was able to fix this by adding "sys.path.append(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(file), '..'))" at the beginning of the example file(s) but then I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/ckb22/pcb-tools/examples/../gerber/render/cairo_backend.py", line 24, in
import cairo
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'cairo'

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:
