Bug#457433: please build graphviz with cairo/gtk support

2007-12-22 Thread Stefano Costa
Package: graphviz
Version: 2.12-5
Severity: wishlist

Hi,
it would be very useful if graphviz would be built with gtk support.

See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/graphviz/+bug/163142 for
the same issue in Ubuntu.

Best,
Steko

Bug#457433: please build graphviz with cairo/gtk support

2007-12-22 Thread Cyril Brulebois
Hi,

 it would be very useful if graphviz would be built with gtk support.

do you have real-life examples needing this? I'm a bit reluctant to
introduce a new binary package right now, since I'd like to push
graphviz 2.16 first (in experimental right now) and since some bits have
to be tweaked in this one. Once it hits unstable, I'll see if I'm going
to add such a package.

Please also note that cairo support is already there:
 * see debian/changelog of 2.12-4. 
 * see debian/rules: ./configure …  --with-pangocairo …
 * see Depends: libcairo2 (= 1.4.0) … libpango1.0-0 (= 1.18.3)

And finally:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/packages.git/graphviz.git$ ldd 
/usr/lib/graphviz/libgvplugin_pango.so.3 | grep pango
libpangocairo-1.0.so.0 = /usr/lib/libpangocairo-1.0.so.0 (0x6ffaf000)
libpango-1.0.so.0 = /usr/lib/libpango-1.0.so.0 (0x6ff46000)
libpangoft2-1.0.so.0 = /usr/lib/libpangoft2-1.0.so.0 (0x6fa7a000)
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/packages.git/graphviz.git$ ldd 
/usr/lib/graphviz/libgvplugin_pango.so.3 | grep cairo
libpangocairo-1.0.so.0 = /usr/lib/libpangocairo-1.0.so.0 (0x6ffaf000)
libcairo.so.2 = /usr/lib/libcairo.so.2 (0x6fea7000)

 See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/graphviz/+bug/163142 for
 the same issue in Ubuntu.

Thanks for the pointer.

Cheers,

Well, basically the fact is that I need  to write a small PyGTK app,
quite similar in design to the one described in this thread
https://mailman.research.att.com/pipermail/graphviz-devel/2007/000279.html in 
the graphviz-devel list, with a graph embedded in a widget.

Because the suggested approach there was to use the 'gtk' renderer, I
wanted to experiment this before (re)writing code that does what I need.

However, I'll look better into the documentation, probably my needs can
be fulfilled by the cairo binding.

I agree with you that 2.16 in unstable is a more important task atm.

Thanks,
Stefano

Ah, thanks for the pointer, I wasn't subscribed at that time.

So you'd be able to send me some feedback if I come to an experimental
new binary package once I'm done with 2.16?

OK, feel free to post your findings here.

Yes, I would be glad to help you testing it.

We don't want Fedora to have the best Graphviz packages! :-)
