I am currently trying to use the dot2texi package, that requires another package, dot2tex. I first tried to install this latter tool (version 2.8.7) from source, but some obscure python bug made it unusable. It is claimed to be solved for most Linux distributions, but I use Texlive, thus I can't get the fix though my OS package manager. (And I just switched recently from using my OSes package manager to a Texlive-controlled installation!)
Texlive recommends to use its own package manager (tlmgr), unfortunatly, the following command:
tlmgr install dot2tex
says:
package dot2tex not present in package repository
What I don't get is that this package seems to be referenced in CTAN (see second link). How can I solve this issue ?
The command tlmgr install dot2texi
did work, but the command dot2tex
is not installed.
pip
. Usehttp://code.google.com/p/dot2tex/downloads/detail?name=dot2tex-2.8.7.zip

and try to install it with EasyInstall.dot2tex
