Public bug reported:

It would be very useful if typing "bzr vis" without having bzr-gtk
installed resulted in a nice error message saying "please install bzr-
gtk to activate this functionality". Think about how bash prints "please
install package `mercurial` to run command `hg`" etc etc.

I spent a long time today wondering if I just had an old bzr version or
something. I saw graphviz being pulled in as a dependency to the core
bzr package so I assumed the graphing functionality would be available
in plain bzr without the GTK UI.
