Bug#671609: dot2texi broken with current texlive
Dear Kjell,
Norbert Preining from the TeX Live Team (and Debian TeX Group).
thanks for maintaining dot2texi. As you have stated in the google
group there is a problem with current moreverb:
https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/dot2tex-users/kbjZGRVT5SY
which can be fixed by adding
\@ifundefined{verbatim@out}{\newwrite\verbatim@out}{}%
to the sty file.
As this is now over a year ago I took the liberty to prepare a
new .sty file and uploaded it to CTAN. Thus, the fixed version
will be included in TeX Live 2012 (and for Philipp: in the next
release of the Debian packages).
The diff to your version is as follows:

Still, we are not able to fix every bug in a package that is on CTAN. We don't even have the manpower to fix all the bugs that *we* introduced by our packaging, and forwarding upstream bugs to upstream (i.e. package authors). Trying to fix bugs like this in Debian would mean: - Trying to be more up-to-date than upstream - sorting out the mess when a new TeXLive release comes: - has the package been updated, do we just drop the patch? - has the package been updated, but without the bug being fixed? Does the patch still apply? That simply doesn't work. However, you are free to maintain a dot2texi file in TEXMFDEBIAN.

Fact is: It's broken in Debian and it does break TeX files that use it. I didn't notice that it's some sort of contrib thing, which is what CTAN suggests.

Thanks for the bug report. I don't think that severity is important
-> lowering to normal.
As I could see in the google groups thread the upstream author is
already informed. So I just mark the bug as forwarded, no we don't
intend to patch the file in Debian. Please install the fixed version
in your local texmf tree.

Hi,
dot2texi got broken by the recent texlive upload. According to [0], the
following line needs to be inserted after moreverb is loaded in dot2texi.sty:
\@ifundefined{verbatim@out}{\newwrite\verbatim@out}{}%
[0] https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/dot2tex-users/kbjZGRVT5SY
I can confirm that the file that worked with the old texlive then compiles
successfully with that fix. (And the output is identical, too.)
Thanks for maintaining (and updating!) texlive,
Philipp Kern
