Getting the Error: Graphics API version mismatch

I'm getting the following error when I run shiny:

Error: Graphics API version mismatch


Listening on http://127.0.0.1:3774
Warning: Error in Cairo: Graphics API version mismatch
  [No stack trace available]

Any idea how to fix it.

Starting with R 4.1.0 the graphics engine version has been upgraded. I suspect that may cause the error.

The R News for 4.1.0 state:

The graphics engine version, R_GE_version, has been bumped to 14 and so packages that provide graphics devices should be reinstalled.

So maybe re-installing the Cairo package solves the issue.

I got this error using ggsave. I fixed it by removing and re-installing the package ragg. The version remained at 1.2.2 but now worked. I am using RStudio 2022.07.1 with R version 4.2.1
