I am trying to install mono (latest version), and I
am having some trouble. Cygin complains that I don't have "libiconv"
package installed. I figured out how to install that, now it complains
that cvs command is not found. I will also have to say that the reliance
on Cywin is a huge one, and the Cygwin install is one of the most painful
installs I have made in quite some time. I must have had to restart this
install 20-30 times to get everything, and it appears that I am not even close
to getting it all in there.
Two words -- painful and ugly. Lose the
Cygwin dependancy and your product might have a hope of being something one
day. I am still trying to see if it is worthwhile, but you can see what my
initial thoughts are going to be. Initial impressions are the most
meaniful.
