Package: fsharp
Version: 3.1.1.26+dfsg2-3
Serverity: important

I backported mono 4.0.2.5 from Debian experimental to raspbian wheezy/jessie (I built it in wheezy but the fsharp testing was done in jessie) as we have users asking for more recent mono versions (arm support has been improving in mono upstream recently).

Since fsharp was one of the programs people have been having trouble with I decided to try it against my new mono packages but I found it was uninstallable as it depends on libmono-microsoft-build2.0-cil which is no longer provided in the mono 4.0.2.5 packages.

So I decided to try rebuilding fsharp, that failed too with a configure error. Reading configure.ac I found

MONOGACDIR20="$MONOGACDIR"/2.0
MONOGACDIR35="$MONOGACDIR"/3.5
MONOGACDIR40="$MONOGACDIR"/4.0

if ! test -e $MONOGACDIR20/mscorlib.dll; then
AC_ERROR(Couldn't find the mono gac directory or mscorlib.dll in the usu
fi

The only version of mscorlib.dll provided by the mono 4.0.2.5 packages is in /usr/lib/mono/4.5/mscorlib.dll which clearly cannot satisfy that test.
