In this case, assumimg you want standard hdf5 (and not the mpich and lam
variants that are also available) and 

$ apt-get install libhdf5-serial-dev graphviz  

but I do not know if the graphviz package has all you need.

One day we may have suitable .deb packages for this to make installation of
complex CRAN / bioC packages a litte easier.
