One can easily install mtn-browse under /opt and the installer will highlight

Mind filing a RFP (request for packaging)?

Many thanks for the offer. I'll file a request this weekend when I'm not

Well, for that it would be better to file a bug for that specific project.

http://oandrieu.nerim.net/monotone-viz/

and branch net.venge.monotone-viz on code.monotone.ca, i.e. here:
https://code.monotone.ca/p/contrib/source/tree/h:net.venge.monotone-viz/

Kind Regards

Sorry.  I wasn't clear.  I was referring to the problem with 
monotone-viz being unable to parse dot output.

Or should I invesigate the problem myself?  If so, where do I find the 
upstream repository for monotone-viz?  Presumably there's a monotone 
repository for it somewhere.

It's sufficient for me to write the package. It helps in the package
getting accepted in Debian, if there's a third-party RFP. So, yes,
please file the "official" RFP. Thanks.

Should I file an official bug report?  Or is my note on the monotone 
devel mailing list sufficient?

You can find it under GUI tools on the main monotone site and more specifically:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/mtn-browse/

I wrote mtn-browse but haven't got involved in the packaging. There's only so 
much free time... Others have fine excellent work on packaging it for redhat, 
but that doesn't help you.

One can easily install mtn-browse under /opt and the installer will highlight 
missing dependencies.

Yes I've noticed that as well...

Dot is a part of graphviz and as such is a layout processor, given a list of 
geometric shapes and their links, it will generate an optimized graph layout. 
Both monotone-viz and mtn-browse use it the generate the graphs.

Ocaml does not scare me.

I neither was aware that mtn-browse existed, nor know where to find 
it.

It does not appear to be in the Debian repositories, and googling it 
provides me with methods to cheat MTN (whatever that is) to browse for 
free.

What *is* the dot output, anyway?
