I am just using the debian provided version of driver::cairo (0.46)

here is the code i am using 

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;use warnings;

use Graphics::Primitive::Container;
use Graphics::Color::RGB;
use Graphics::Primitive::Font;
use Graphics::Primitive::TextBox;
use Graphics::Primitive::Driver::Cairo;
use Layout::Manager::Compass;

my $black = Graphics::Color::RGB->new(red => 0, green => 0, blue => 0)
+;

my $container = Graphics::Primitive::Container->new( width => 100, hei
+ght => 100);

$container->border->width(1);
$container->border->color($black);
$container->padding(
    Graphics::Primitive::Insets->new(top => 5, bottom => 5, left => 5,
+ right => 5)
);


my $comp = Graphics::Primitive::Component->new;
$comp->background_color($black);
$container->add_component($comp, 'c');

my $lm = Layout::Manager::Compass->new;
$lm->do_layout($container);

my $driver = Graphics::Primitive::Driver::Cairo->new;
$driver->draw($container);
$driver->write('/tmp/foo.png');

Chart::Clicker works fine, so i know that its possible for Graphics::Primitive::Driver::Cairo to output something
