Precise: Abiword 2.9.4

I have compiled Abiword word processor version 2.9.4 in Precise Puppy, against the GTK2 library.

PETs (3.6M, 33.1M, 2K, 2.1M):

http://distro.ibiblio.org/quirky/pet_packages-precise/abiword_NLS-2.9.4-precise.pet

This is how I compiled it:


It might not work in Precise 5.5.92, as I installed 'libcairo-gobject2' and 'libcairo-script-interpreter2' from the 'ubuntu-main' repo.

I am wondering if this Abiword will also work in Raring pup?
The last upload of Raring pup has the official Ubuntu Abiword DEB, which uses GTK3 -- also it crashed when I opened the Preferences window -- consistently.
In Raring pup would also need to install 'libcairo-gobject2' and 'libcairo-script-interpreter2'.
