GLib-2.10.3 and one of cairo-1.2.4 or X Window System or Fontconfig-2.3.2
cairo is not required to build Pango, but it is highly recommended that you install cairo before building Pango. If you don't build Pango with a cairo backend, then GTK+-2 will not build.
User Notes: http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/pango
Install Pango by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc && make
To test the results, issue: make check.
Now, as the root user:
make install
--sysconfdir=/etc: This switch installs the configuration files into /etc instead of /usr/etc.
--enable-gtk-doc: Use this parameter if GTK-Doc is installed and you wish to rebuild the API documentation.
/etc/pango/pangorc, ~/.pangorc, and the file specified in the environment variable PANGO_RC_FILE
