There's no reason whatsoever other than vacuum-ubigraph was born rather 
hastily and never maintained after that. Its complete history is in the 
vacuum-cairo announcement thread:

As you can see, Don Stewart pointed me at Hubigraph, too. If it was on 
Hackage, probably the right thing to do would be to drop the hidden 
module and use Hubigraph.
