Hi,
pacman-contrib 1.1.0-1. Investigating
https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/50751, that I also suffered yesterday, I
see that graphviz doesn't have gtk2 as an optional dependency like the
bug report claims. Perhaps that's historic, or it's a dependency of a
package that's directly optional.
`pactree graphviz' only shows the dependents. It would be nice if there
was a `-o' option to treat optional dependencies as mandatory. Perhaps
they could be indicated differently in the diagram.

Cheers, Ralph.
