You're right, that's better :-)

Strange... it takes about 10 seconds @ 3 Ghz to generate the svg image
(using the core/base and core/extra repositories).

Take your time. I've tried to implement a depth-first search to find
cycles in the repository graph structure, but yours is working better
and faster, so I gave up :-)

That's unusual! Can you send me the code? I'll run the same script
you're working on and time the results. You could also uncomment those
3 lines in function visualize_repo to save to disk the output string
used by pydot and try it manually with graphviz:

$dot output.dot -Tpng -o dependency_tree.png

Let me know how it goes!
