Cairo-Dock broken

So after a number of updates the last few days, i'm having some problems.

GTK was updated to 2.16.0-1 and cairo was updated to 1.8.0-1. Well i had cairo-wglitz installed from the AUR as i use cairo-dock and this made it run much smoother. Problem is, i can't reinstall cairo-wglitz or X won't even start. So i tried downloading Cairo 1.8.0-0 and compile it with --enable-glitz, but then i would get to xterm and have an error about libcairo.so.2 and wouldn't be able to start a gnome session...

Everything runs fine again if i install cairo from the repo, thing is i can't find the cairo 1.8.0-1 source, not even from the cairo site. And i tried checking the pacman cache to see if i could enable glitz support in there, but unfortunately i haven't got much of a clue what to do....I have cairo-dock running, but it's running terrible without glitz support....

Can anyone recommend anything please?
