Package: python3-networkx Version: 1.9.1-1 Severity: normal Hi,
python3-networkx is able to use python3-pygraphviz as wells as python3-pydot for drawing dot graphs. If both are installed, then the former will be used. Unfortunately it seems that python3-pygraphviz is unable to render graphs with vertex attributes which makes it unfit for drawing all but the most trivial graphs. Since the presence of python3-pygraphviz will make python3-networkx use it over python3-pydot (which does not suffer from this problem), I suggest that python3-networkx conflicts with python3-pygraphviz until the problem is either fixed in networkx or pygraphviz upstream. To test the problem yourself, try to do the following with python3-pygraphviz installed: python3 -c 'import networkx as nx; G=nx.Graph();G.add_node(1,foo="bar");nx.write_dot(G, "out")' The command will never terminate. It on the other hand immediately finishes (as expected) if python3-pygraphviz is not installed but python3-pydot is. This bug is causing problems with my package botch which depends on python3-networkx for graph drawing. Instead of botch conflicting with python3-pygraphviz, I'd like to see this conflict in python3-networkx itself.
