Component:  ports                    |     Version:  1.7.0

-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------
 The +gui variant of the graphviz and graphviz-devel ports downloads the
 2004 PowerPC Mac OS X Graphviz GUI application by Pixel Glow and patches
 it to use the latest Graphviz command line tools (instead of the old
 Graphviz 1.13 command line tools included with it).

 Moving this to a port of its own will simplify the graphviz and graphviz-
 devel ports, will make it easier to install the GUI after you've already
 installed graphviz or graphviz-devel, and will pave the way for another
 port graphviz-gui to install the new GUI. (Glen Low of Pixel Glow is
 working with AT&T to update this old GUI, but the new version requires
 Leopard, so I still want to keep this older version around for Tiger
 users.)
