So it seems that it can't infer your cabal's minor version, so it drops into the else. Do you get any different result when you call `cabal install --ghc-option=DCABAL_VERSION_MINOR=10 cairo`?
Resolving dependencies... target `DCABAL_VERSION_MINOR=10' is not a module name or a source file cabal: Error: some packages failed to install: cairo-0.12.0 failed during the configure step. The exception was: ExitFailure 1
That would be
--ghc-option=-DCABAL_VERSION_MINOR=10
you need to provide the option-dash yourself, cabal doesn't insert it.
