Concerning LTS ubuntu 17.04 (Zesty Zapus) and 17.10 (Artful Aardvark) do
not offer LTS and never had! As I used it , I had no problems but never
got frescobaldi 3.0.0 running. It did not work on "16" either!
Obviously "17" is a version "in between" the LTS releases.
See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases
I recommend not to waste any time with that gone version(s), better stay
with an old 16-version or move to the actual release ubuntu 18.4
(BionicBeaver) April 2018, that offers LTS. The end of life date is not
given in the list, but I think that is approximately 5 years.
There are a lot of linux brans based on ubuntu (Xenial Xerus), i. e.
linux mint
18.3     Sylvia     Ubuntu Xenial     Long term support release (LTS),
supported until April 2021.
18.2     Sonya     Ubuntu Xenial     Long term support release (LTS),
supported until April 2021.
18.1     Serena     Ubuntu Xenial     Long term support release (LTS),
supported until April 2021.
18     Sarah     Ubuntu Xenial     Long term support release (LTS),
supported until April 2021.
17.3     Rosa     Ubuntu Trusty     Long term support release (LTS),
supported until April 2019.
17.2     Rafaela     Ubuntu Trusty     Long term support release (LTS),
supported until April 2019.
17.1     Rebecca     Ubuntu Trusty     Long term support release (LTS),
supported until April 2019.

I have reported problems to frescobaldi quite often, but never got any
reaction. I have frescobaldi 3.0.0 running on Version Linux Mint 18.2
Sonya 64-bit (based on Ubuntu Xenial) with some minor issues. As I have
frequently mentioned in different mails it did not work on any 16 or 17
version! That is true for ubuntu studio 17.04 and 17.10 as well, based
on ubuntu 17.04 Zesty Zapus  and 17.10 Artful Aardvark respectively.
