You could install pango 1.30 from the standard repositories without the need for building it yourself. This would be much easier. Why can you not just use that?

Maybe installing the libxrender1 package is what pango neds for compiling

Is there not a PPA?

Gives 1.30, or do you need 1.28?

If you do use the PPA, add it then install only pango, then remove the PPA by deleting the .list file in /etc/apt/sources.list.d then running:

sudo apt-get udpate

This will mean you don't update your OS with the other packages on the PPA

Can you help with this problem?
