RE: Missing 'dot' tool (expected /usr/local/bin/dot)
[In reply to]

Ah yeah I saw that one before. Did you download an rpm for it? Or did
you compile from source? The only reason I ask is that I initially built
the boxes with a minimal config and ran into this. Googling turned up
info that I needed xorg and other rpm's that contained the font info
also googling returned posts about using the DAG rpm could do this (I do
not know though about the DAG rpm as I did not use it, only saw a post
about it). I ended up installing the test box (centos 4.3) with X and
Gnome + Dev packages then set the default run state to 3 in /etc.
It compiled without that error afterwards so when I get time I plan on
checking the system to see what rpm's are needed for that font. I just
do not have the time currently with 4 other projects eating up time.
