I was wrong about graphviz not being installed, because I checked on three 
other machines after that first email, and version 12 was in those.

This is reproducible, assuming you have the older version of graphviz:

pkg_add /usr/pkgsrc/packages/All/graphviz-12.2.1nb7.tgz
cd /usr/pkgsrc/graphics/graphviz
make replace

This works, after the failure:

pkg_delete -f graphviz (should already be gone as part of make replace)
make clean install


Separately, "make replace" when the package isn't already installed gives:

=> Creating binary package /usr/pkgsrc/packages/All/graphviz-14.1.3.tgz
===> replace-message [graphviz-14.1.3] ===> Replacing for graphviz-14.1.3
*** Error code 1


:)

Thanks,
