Use MultiPages

[paddy-milo]

I am using matplotlib to plot graphs in an Arch Linux container linked here.

I would like to use the MultiPage feature in Cairo but downloading this repo in a container with Arch Linux is complex and I do not want too many dependencies for my container.

I only need the classes for the MultiPages feature in this repo. I am having trouble doing this. GraphicsContextRendererCairo is required to define MultiPages but GraphicsContextRendererCairo needs _mplcairo.GraphicsContextRendererCairo. Where can I find the definition of _mplcairo.GraphicsContextRendererCairo.

It is implemented in C++, so you cannot avoid compiling the extension module and therefore getting all dependencies for doing so.
