The main FTBFS source is font usage in image files as I see. The image generation plugin (libgvplugin-gd) is a hard dependency on the graphviz binary. I can put libgvplugin-pango to hard dependency as well for font and pdf usage, but it will still need to be addressed sooner or later which packages really need it. Regards, Laszlo/GCS
