How to install mono 4.8 on Ubuntu 16.04

Ok, I feel like I should be able to figure this out based on the documentation provided by Mono, but nothing is working. Based on this guide and this note, I've tried running 

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 3FA7E0328081BFF6A14DA29AA6A19B38D3D831EF
echo "deb http://download.mono-project.com/repo/ubuntu/dists/wheezy/snapshots/4.8.0" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-official.list
sudo apt-get update

I've modifed that 2nd line a few times and or simply edited /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-official.list, trying other similar things, butevery time I run the sudo apt-get update, I get:

user@NAS:~$ sudo apt-get update
E: Malformed entry 1 in list file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-official.list (Component)
E: The list of sources could not be read.

I need 4.8, as the app I need to use with mono does not work as well with 5.0. I currently have mono 4.2.1, but I believe it came pre-installed on my distro.

An alternative to using the various packages is to build it from source.

This can be handy as you can also change the install location and have multiple versions installed at the same time.

I've already explained how to do this here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/76049418/16038645

Actually, if you add ppa with target version (as user8174722 said) 

echo "deb http://download.mono-project.com/repo/ubuntu wheezy/snapshots/4.8.0 main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-official.list

and you have not add any other version or main repo, you can install mono v4.8.0 with pure 

apt install mono-devel

and you don't need to specify all this versions.

But be sure that you do not have other mono-project's repo in your /etc/apt directory. You can check it with 

grep -d recurse -e 'mono-project' /etc/apt

Your procedure looks sound, one small issue is that the second step should be

echo "deb http://download.mono-project.com/repo/ubuntu wheezy/snapshots/4.8.0 main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-official.list

Next step (after apt-get update) is installing the mono-devel 4.8.0 package and all its dependencies by version:
