I tried to contact few months ago upstream about this and received: <quote> From: "Emden R.

Is this thingie called only internally or is > it widely used by users? As for the gc command, I'm unaware of any other gc command. What does /usr/bin/gc do? Is this special to gentoo, as we haven't had any problems with the other Linux distributions. The gc command goes back to 2001. It is the graph equivalent of wc, and is widely used by itself. </quote> The address does not work anymore: <erg@research.att.com>: host mail-violet.research.att.com[204.178.8.21] said: 550 5.1.1 <erg#research!att!com>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table (in reply to RCPT TO command) I suggest /gc/graphviz_gc/. BTW, was there /usr/bin/wc in the past?
Maybe somebody try to open it at http://www.graphviz.org/content/graphviz-issue-tracker ?
There is no package called sci-biology/codonw in the gentoo repository.
