I have been trying to install graph tool for past 2 days. Have met with many errors in installing it and its dependencies (still solving). Also I have seen many errors posted by the community regarding the usage of package.
I was planning to use it for my research work since the tools seems promising. But it might take some time to change to another graph tool if I find out at a later stage that there are too many bugs in Python-graph tool and is not yet ready to relied on for a Ph.D level work.
Having problems with installation does not mean there is a bug with graph-tool. Being implemented in C++, and depending on other C/C++ libraries, graph-tool requires a basic understanding and familiarity with compiling and installing C++ libraries, sorting out dependencies, etc. For those that do not have this familiarity, there are packages available for some operating systems (Ubuntu, Debian, Arch, Gentoo and MacOS), that make this task easier.
Hence I would really like to hear from the people who have used this tool for some work before I begin.
I use it extensively in my research, and I know that others do too. Best, Tiago -- Tiago de Paula Peixoto <tiago@skewed.de>
