To complete on usability: Dia goal is to design general logical draws 
such as diagrams and charts (there are other programs if you need a 
specific diagram task, such as UML design, but Dia offers flexibility 
and programatic I/O you can extend yourself). Dia has nothing to do with 
a general drawing program. Take a look on its homepage and online 
documentation.

More generally, the only good way to find a program which fit your needs 
is to take a look at its homepage and documentation (with except for: 
you benefits a software package system with convenient metadata, index 
and search engine, what you find for years on most GNU/Linux general 
purpose distributions).

I know there are plently of bulk download sites, plently of freeware, 
adware and footware, and they generally sucks on any side but display 
ads. Don't blame a program [making bananas perfectly]: shame is on 
download site [claiming dishonestly that program did the strawberries 
you want].
