There are several bug reports with the same problem on the particalur GitHub projects.
There are 2 major issues with the Ubuntu package:
1.) the error you get is from MangoHUD. This is a known error and already fixed in the pre-release version 0.6.6-1. See:
https:/
2.) the libQt5Pas library of ubuntu is too old for the latest GOverlay version. See the GitHub Comment here:
https:/
and
https:/
If you don't you may see this error:
goverlay: symbol lookup error: ./goverlay: undefined symbol: QLCLOpenGLWidge
Steps to work around:
1.) Update to the latest "pre"-release v0.6.6-1 of MangoHUD from GitHub. There was also on GitHub the question why it isn't a stable release, if it solves a major bug in a previous release.
2.) Update LibQt5Pas as described in the GOverlay GitHub project. At this point the Ubuntu package should work again. But it doesn't harm to also update it to their latest version too.
