Collision of pycairo for both build dependency and install requires

pycairo is required for build_ext and it is also a install dependency listed in install_requires. That causes PyGObject cannot be installed without pip. In my case, PyGObject is listed in install_requires and tox runs tests by enabling usedevelop = True. It also fails to run python setup.py develop inside project directory.

This traceback output:
