https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=665110#c0 Summary: mono install is no longer relocatable, patch included Classification: Mono Product: Mono: Runtime Version: 2.8.x Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: misc AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [email protected] QAContact: [email protected] Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US) AppleWebKit/534.16 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/10.0.628.0 Safari/534.16 There is code in set_dirs in mono/metadata/assembly.c that attempts to figure out the mono install path based on the path to the mono executable. This code assumes that PREFIX/lib/mono/1.0 exists, and falls back on the hardcoded installation-prefix based logic when it doesn't. Unfortunately, the installation process no longer creates this directory, so this auto-detection always fails and mono fails to run with: The assembly mscorlib.dll was not found or could not be loaded. It should have been installed in the `/usr/local/lib/mono/2.0/mscorlib.dll' directory. If I mkdir -p PREFIX/lib/mono/1.0 then the mono install will run from anywhere so long as the structure of the installation directory is intact relative to PREFIX/bin/mono. I suggest the following change: --- ../../mono-2.8.2/mono/metadata/assembly.c 2011-01-04 12:39:55.000000000 -0500 +++ mono/metadata/assembly.c 2011-01-18 07:05:51.992922001 -0500 @@ -566,7 +566,7 @@ config = g_build_filename (base, "etc", NULL); lib = g_build_filename (base, "lib", NULL); - mono = g_build_filename (lib, "mono/1.0", NULL); + mono = g_build_filename (lib, "mono/2.0", NULL); if (stat (mono, &buf) == -1) fallback (); else { Reproducible: Always -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
