Package: graphviz
Version: 2.8-2.3
Severity: important

To the R/BioConductor package interfacing graphviz, its configure relies on
querying pkg-config.  But witness:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> pkg-config --libs graphviz
Package graphviz was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `graphviz.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable

That makes it pretty useless as a library provides, as the install from R
falls flat on its face:

> update.packages(lib.loc="/usr/local/lib/R/site-library")

And libgvc is installed by graphviz so this is really too bad.

Hell, there are no rules here - we're trying to accomplish something.

| Right, but the .pc files are:
|   libagraph.pc
|   libcdt.pc
|   libgraph.pc
|   libgvc.pc
|   libpathplan.pc
| 
| So you won't ever get any answer for `graphviz' through `pkg-config'.

Quite right. Rather embarrassing that I overlooked that...

Thanks for catching it, and down one on the RC count!
