Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: graphviz
I have a Dell XPS M1710 laptop running pure up-to-date Hardy. I tried
to use dot from graphviz to visualize a graph produced by kprof for a
program of mine, but I have found that it is unable to handle this
particular graph file properly. The problem behaves differently with
different output plugins. SVG works fine, but all other output types
that I have tried have either caused dot to run forever and rapidly
consume all available memory (jpg, gif) or have produced files that
cause that in whatever program I try to view them with (ps, png). I have
2 GB of RAM, and yet this bug chews through it in a matter of seconds.
The offending dot file is attached.
