Pkgsrc changes:
o Adapt the large set of diffs to the new version.
o Depend directly on cairo and turn off the use of the ancient

Sunbird 0.8 is the latest release of our standalone calendar
application. We recommend that all users upgrade to this latest
version.
The following features have been added to Sunbird 0.8:

users a much better overview of their differently categorized
events

created by other applications. This fixes the longstanding

contained in those files

calendars offline. This feature has known bugs and is included
for testing purposes only

improve working with larger calendar files

want to be notified of alarms for events in these calendars or
not
