Hi, Vernon,

Von: Vernon Cole

We Ubuntu users are still very inconvenienced by that quick "we don't build" 
answer. Thanks for fixing the builder so that I can _try_ to home-build a .NET 
2 version.  After killing and reinstalling my Ubuntu system, I gave up trying 
to actually accomplish it. It requires installing a second version of Mono 
side-by-side with the supported version in order to do the build. But to do 
_that_ you have to home-build the newer version of Mono from source and ... 
[cough. sputter. Huh? ... Oh! ... Sorry! I'm back now...]
  I note that the IPy daily build script actually does build an appropriate 
version, but apparently the output gets thrown away. I would be very nice if it 
were put someplace where one could find it.
  Hopefully the next release of Ubuntu will have an upgraded .NET 4 compatible 
version of Mono, and this problem will go away. Until then, I still cannot use 
a current version of IronPython on my preferred workstation ... and therefore 
cannot do much IPy testing.  (I only use Windows when I must, or when someone 
pays me to.)


Maybe you can use Windows to build the .NET 2 compatible DLLs, and then use 
them under Mono?

Best Regards,
Markus Schaber
