# It's become a problem for me that the latest versions of mono aren't exactly available for the lastest version of Ubuntu,
# Ubuntu 18.04 as the repositories still carry a fairly old version of monodevelop-4.8
# This quick snippet will add a repository that will install the latest mono.
# At the time of writing this, 5.12.x
