Cairo does not work on install of R 4.2.0 from source

As I said, both versions of R are installed on the same machine, thus 
the necessary libraries should be available, I think. 

See the configure.log. You do have the necessary libraries but not the
header files (in the lib*-dev packages) required to compile code to be
linked against them.

Does it help if you `sudo apt build-dep r-base` before compiling R from
source?

Best regards,
