[ Too many lists :-( ]
Could you please uninstall all graphviz packages from the build hosts
for a while?

Request first:
Would it be possible to uninstall all earlier versions of the
graphviz packages on the buildhosts, perhaps just for a few days while I
build the graphviz-2.28.0 packages?
Problem analysis.
The most recent attempt to package graphviz-2.28.0 failed because
of a libtool problem.
During "make install", libtool relinks libraries against the final
installation location. But the dependent libraries from the graphviz
packages haven't yet been installed yet, so libtool picks up the old
libraries incorrectly.
In fact the libtool manual
<http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/manual/html_node/Install-mode.html>
states:
"Currently it is not generally possible to install into a
temporary staging area that contains needed third-party libraries which
are not yet visible at their final location."
and yet, the earlier release built ok, so my working theory is that
it won't add incorrect libraries during the relink if they don't exist
at all.
