Version 0.6.17 can run with Python 2.4.
Sketch was renamed to Skencil.

I tried to report this to ubuntu-users in April 2005,
but it seems my message was not accepted by the moderators
and never made it through.

There is a new debian package in testing and in backports.
It would be easy to build for ubuntu:

Get e.g. the following files (or newer) from Debian:
skencil_0.6.17-3.dsc
skencil_0.6.17-3.diff.gz
skencil_0.6.17.orig.tar.gz

dpkg-source -x skencil_0.6.17-3.dsc
cd in the directory and use
dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -rfakeroot
