Public bug reported:
After installing graphviz 2.36.0-0ubuntu1 in Trusty, I can no longer
generate any PNG images with the 'dot' tool. The reason for this is that
the package scripts do not configure the installed graphviz plugins:
To reproduce:
----
$ dot -Tpng my_file.dot > my_file.png
There is no layout engine support for "dot"
Perhaps "dot -c" needs to be run (with installer's privileges) to register the
plugins?
$ sudo dot -c
[sudo] password for thomi:
$ dot -Tpng my_file.dot > my_file.png
# works now.
I think the 'sudo dot -c' step ought to be done as part of the package
installation scripts.
