Bug 99802 – graphviz-cairo-2.6 (new ebuild)

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

[Description John Ellson 2005-07-21 07:44:44 UTC]

Graphviz-2.4 is now the stable release from: http://www.graphviz.org/

graphviz-2.4 provides a new plugin framework for renderers, and eventually other
components, which can be independently packaged and compiled.

graphviz-cairo-2.4 is a separate source package that provides a renderer plugin
using cairo for antialised graphics.

graphviz-2.4 provides new swig-generated language bindings for: perl, python,
ruby, tcl, php, guile, java, ...

Provides a changed C binding (uses libgvh, gvc.h, and pkgconfig instead of
libdotneato, dotneato.h, and dotneato-config-sh).

The core layout engines are basically unchanged in function since
graphviz-2.2.1, except for bug fixes: 156, 255, 492, 631, 641, 647, 659, 662,
665, 670, 690, 691, 701, 702, 703, 705, 730, 731, 732, 741, 743
(For details, see: http://www.graphviz.org/bugs/buglist.html )

The program "lefty" has been upgraded, providing improvements
to "dotty" and "lneato" 



Reproducible: Always

Bumped in portage. I'll prepare cario ebuild when it'll be unmasked.

Suggest media-gfx/graphviz-cairo.

This will have to stay masked until cairo-0.9.x is out of mask.

See bug 101337 for discussion of updating /usr/lib/graphviz/config when new
graphviz plugins are installed.

graphviz-2.6 and graphviz-cairo-2.6 are now available:
    http://www.graphviz.org/pub/graphviz/ARCHIVE/graphviz-2.6.tar.gz
    http://www.graphviz.org/pub/graphviz/ARCHIVE/graphviz-cairo-2.6.tar.gz

graphviz-2.6 fixes bugs: 746, 750, 752, 753, 754, 756, 761, 763, 764, 765, 768,
                771, 772, 773, 774, 775, 776, 777, 778
(For details, see: http://www.graphviz.org/bugs/buglist.html )

graphviz-cairo-2.6 provides:
   - antialised bitmap rendering for PNG, GIF, JPG output formats
   - a new desktop application "DotEdit"
      (still buggy and not feature complete but possibly usable now as a graph
viewer.  I expect to release a more complete and useful version next month. )

Please make stable, graphviz 1.x did some bad rendering which is fixed in 2.x, 
which runs stable here (x86).

[Comment 7 Ed Catmur 2007-01-10 09:44:12 UTC]

Has been merged into main graphiz package. Please close.

[Comment 8 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) 2007-02-26 09:24:51 UTC]

Indeed, pointless bug; just emerge graphviz w/ USE=cairo.
