This is definitely not the case. For example, a simple test program compiled with mcs (v1) in Ubuntu 6.06 will work with the mcs-compiled nunit, but crashes when the same program is compiled with gmcs (v2). It's possible that this was fixed in a later version of mono. > Debian and Ubuntu ships Mono without modifications (maybe some patches > for debian integration or bugfixes takes from SVN), all the different > versions (1.0 vs 2.0) comes from Mono, as Mono provides a CLI 1.0/1.1 > and 2.0 runtime. This is perhaps the main source of my confusion: there are 2.0 version numbers already floating around in the runtime distribution.
