Ok.  If you want to use that version of graphviz, you need to install
_Rgraphviz_ from source.  And that will require having the right tools
and setup for building source packages with R.

Yes, install the binary version of graphviz 2.8 that I linked to in my
previous message.  That is the _only_ graphviz that is expected to
work with the Rgraphviz binary.

Better to use biocLite for installing Bioconductor packages in the
future.
