Installing Graphziv on Mac OS X

I’m playing with Graphviz on the Mac. Unfortunately, the latest official download, 2.20.3, gives the following error message when run from the command line:

dyld: lazy symbol binding failed: Symbol not found: _pixman_image_create_bits
  Referenced from: /usr/local/lib/graphviz/libgvplugin_pango.5.dylib
  Expected in: flat namespace

dyld: Symbol not found: _pixman_image_create_bits
  Referenced from: /usr/local/lib/graphviz/libgvplugin_pango.5.dylib
  Expected in: flat namespace

Trace/BPT trap

The solution is to go to the downloads directory and download the next-most-recent release, 2.20.2.

  3. Wow... This is Jon Cannon. I was having this problem and googled the error. What was the likelihood I would have eaten dinner with the guy who wrote up the fix within the last month?

    Thanks for the help!
