pydot and graphviz error: Couldn't import dot_parser, loading of dot files will not be possible

Question

When I run a very simple code with pydot

import pydot
graph = pydot.Dot(graph_type=\'graph\')

for i in range(3):

  edge = pydot.Edge(\"king\", \"lord%d\" %         


        

Answer 1

The solution was not to install pydot from somewhere, but "python-pydot" from official ubuntu repositories.
