Can not install DotEditor on Ubuntu 16.04: ImportError: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/mesa/libGL.so.1: undefined symbol: drmFreeDevice

I have some problems with the installation of the package

Here is error message:

The same trouble in Debian "stretch".

I had the same issue. I was able to run it from source.

First install dependencies:

sudo apt install python-wxgtk2.8 python-wxtools python-ply
sudo pip install colour

Then fetch and run the code:

git clone https://github.com/vincenthEE/DotEditor.git
cd DotEditor
python DotEditor.py

Probably the same as this issue: fman-users/fman#119
