Bug#557749: graphviz: different parallelograms have different angles



Package: graphviz
Version: 2.20.2-3+b4
Severity: wishlish

As seen on the attached picture, parallelograms with different aspect
ratios have very different angles (graphviz apparently defines them as
polygons with skew of .5 or something like that):

$ cat foo.dot
graph foo
{
    node [shape="parallelogram"]

    a
    pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism
}
$ dot -T png < foo.dot > foo.png
$

This is not how parallelograms are conventionally used as graph nodes.
Please consider providing a way to produce parallelograms with angles
not depending on the aspect ratio.
