Welcome to the community Manfred!

I can confirm that GraphViz 2.24 is failing to build on the ActiveState Platform. The team is currently investigating the failure, and will schedule a fix.

Thanks for reporting.

The File::Which is listed as a runtime dependency, but turns out it’s a build dependency. But it looks like we need to provide support for the graphviz shared library. We will schedule this work.

Thank you for your efforts. A result would help me very much

This work is still in progress. Unfortunately for windows, the C++ library build requires a number of dependencies that need addressing. If this was trivial it would already be done, so it may still be some time before this is completed.
