I'm trying to install Graphviz 2.14.1 on osX 10.5.8
I installed Graphviz from the Universal Binary here:

Your graphviz installation could not be found.  

Either the graphviz package is missing on incomplete  
(binary packages graphviz-dev or graphviz-devel missing?).    

If you think your installation is correct you will need to manually  
change the include_path and library_path variables in setup.py to  
point to the correct locations of your graphviz installation.  

The current setting of library_path and include_path is:  
library_path=None  
include_path=None  

Traceback (most recent call last):  
  File "setup.py", line 78, in <module>  
    raise OSError,"Error locating graphviz."  
OSError: Error locating graphviz.  

Here is the path to Graphviz:

$ ls -la /usr/local/lib/

drwxrwxr-x   40 root   wheel     1360 Dec 21 06:22 graphviz  

$ python setup.py install --library_path /usr/local/lib/graphviz/

What do I need to do to get this installed?

It seems like you are missing the "pkg-config" package. You can install it with Homebrew

brew install pkg-config
