This can be closed, by the looks of it, 13.04 reached its end of life a
while ago.
Well we are still a couple of versions behind: the latest packaged version is 2.38 released in 2014, while the latest upstream is 2.40.1, released in December 2016, and Trusty is at 2.36.
But it's probably not part of this ticket.

Title:
Graphviz version should be upgraded for 13.04
Status in graphviz package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Binary package hint: graphviz
The Graphviz version in Lucid (10.04) is still 2.20, which is some
years old and contains a number of known issues. The problems with
using such an old version has come up on the graphviz-interest list
multiple times, I could dig up the following with a few minutes of
googling:

I know that Maverick and Natty are going to have version 2.26, why not
give the same version to Lucid - as it's an LTS release, we'll be
using it for years and have the same problem. There should not be any
major dependency issues, at least the Ubuntu packages on graphviz.org
work just fine on my systems, I would just like to have an
installation I can manage properly from apt.
