Cairo In Ubuntu 14.04?

A client of mine is running a script of mine that uses Cairo. They
report their Cairo version as “1.13.0~20140204-0ubuntu1.1”. This seems
to be the latest version for Ubuntu 14.04
<https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cairo/1.13.0~20140204-0ubuntu1.1>,
which is an LTS release.

The problem is, they are reporting some odd discrepancies of one or two
pixels in laying out things, as well quality problems, compared to what
I get when I run the same script with the same inputs on my machine
(Cairo version 1.14.2 under Debian Unstable).

That 1.13 version number strikes me as a little suspicious. As I
understand it, all stable Cairo releases have version numbers 1.x with
even-numbered x.

Does anyone know of issues with Cairo on this Ubuntu version? And why
they chose a 1.13 version for an LTS release instead of sticking with
1.12?

Thanks for any suggestions.
