   I use PabloDraw (by Picoe) on Mac OS X and Ubuntu 18.04 without issue. Here's   
   the information to install it correctly in Ubuntu 18.04;   
      
      
      
   #First you need to add the repo for mono 2.10   
   sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys   
   3FA7E0328081BFF6A14DA29AA6A19B38D3D831EF   
   echo "deb https://download.mono-project.com/repo/ubuntu stable-bionic main" |   
   sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-official-stable.list   
   sudo apt update   
      
   #Next you need to install mono-complete and gtk-sharp2   
   sudo apt install mono-complete gtk-sharp2   
      
   #Now once this is installed, download the linux .zip file from Picoe   
   http://download.picoe.ca/pablodraw/3.2/PabloDraw-3.2.1.zip   
      
   #Finally, and this isn't documented as far as I can see, PabloDraw only seems   
   #to see files that are *lowercase* in folders, so rename all the files you   
   #want to use to lowercase, an easy way to do this, is the following in the   
   #folder you have the files that might be uppercase;   
   zip -r foo.zip foo/*; unzip -LL foo.zip   
      
   This will install all the necessaries to run PabloDraw with mono 2.10.   
      
      
   Hope this helps :)   
      
   Best regards,   
   Christian.
