Most likely you don't have vbnc installed. Ubuntu splits Mono into many small packages, so users often find that they're missing libraries and tools that would be expected as part of a Mono installation on other distros, e.g. openSUSE.

Also, please don't set priority on bugs, especially "critical". We'll do that after triaging them.

Renaming bug to reflect the actual issue.
