    In other words if you check this exhaustive list of official sources, there's no official RPM for modern graphviz on old RHEL. You will have to build that package yourself, or work on a more modern release of RHEL, or need to work in a container. Commented Oct 26, 2024 at 8:49
  • and, this addresses exactly that situation: I need a package for my version of RHEL/EPEL/CentOS/Fedora, but it's only packaged for other versions of Redhatoids Commented Oct 26, 2024 at 8:51

  • in the latest RHEL-8.10 as of this date, it is graphviz-2.40.1-39.el8.x86_64 and it comes from the rhel-8-for-x86_64-appstream-rpms repository. Commented Oct 28, 2024 at 12:26
  • @ron version 2.40 is way too old. There are some significant Unicode bugs in there which are fixed in version 10.0.1 - Building from source was the way to go! Commented Oct 28, 2024 at 23:34
