how to install grpahviz
Hi
I don't know much about linux and need to install graphviz. Do i need to install everything in this list:
http://www.graphviz.org/Download_linux_ubuntu.php
If i look in synaptic graphviz is already installed (version 2.26.3-4) but not, for example, graphviz-doc or graphviz_dev
thanks

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
In the link that you have given, packages are divided into two groups-- one for 64 bit servers, and the other one for common 32 bit Intel kind of machine architectures.
Based on what kind of architecture you have, you should install all the packages in the group to make sure it work correctly. Most of the packages appear to be libraries to provide the functionality to the main package. If your current system has 'good enough' packages on it right now, you will not have to install more packages that are not in this list. Otherwise you might have to get even more.
