Suggestion was to move "/usr/bin/dot" into its own subrpm which should
work similar to "*-libs" subrpms. Move the app into e.g. "graphviz-base"
and have the "graphviz" rpm depend on "graphviz-base".

I'll also submit it again as request to upstream. Only one app in a subrpm
is not really great packaging, but would allow very small server installs.
The one bz asking to then merge some of the other small subrpms would also
make lots of sense.
