if I try it in the Daily I get a message that Graphviz couldn't be found.
This is not an issue with "Daily", it's an issue with
AppImage. Please edit your first post and correct the topic title accordingly.

I might add that it's a pretty old build at that. The latest available one is 0.18.14

I have FreeCad installed from the repository and also the Daily.
Your "Daily" is
not installed because it's actually an AppImage. AppImage is a self-contained binary, you download it and execute it, like portable builds on Windows. It is not installed in the system's folders, and that's the real source of your issue here.
Why are you not using the
freecad-daily PPA? AppImage is provided for users of other Linux distributions, for Ubuntu and derivatives (Linux Mint being one) the best method will always be the PPA as long as it exists.
Excerpt from the
Download page:
Notes for GNU/Linux users
FreeCAD can be installed from most Linux distributions official repositories, but the version they provide might be quite dated and be missing many features. Instead you can download the linked AppImage above, mark it as executable and launch it without installation.
Please see the Install on Unix page for more installation options, including how to get up-to-date packages for Ubuntu and derivatives .
