Back onto point a bit here. I have noticed a couple recurring trends. #1) People who use the installer, and not the rpms, and then install gtk# 1.9.5 into a *different* prefix than the installer, and then install MD seem to have the most issues. To me, and Daniel can correct me if I am wrong, but it seems that people using the installer don't seem to understand that if you don't install mono stuff into the same prefix as mono, you need to mung things like MONO_GAC_PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH, etc. Maybe this is something that should be put into some sort of HOWTO for the installer.
#2) People assume that MD not loading with the DllNotFoundException are related to MD. That is just not the case. Any application that actually attempting to use those libraries would die the same way. MonoDevelop just happens to be a non-toy application, so it exposes the issues in your setup right away. I would recommend for people who are having issues installing MonoDevelop look into how their mono prefix and gtk# prefixes are setup, as that seems to be the #1 cause of all of these problems. Mixing RPMS w/ tarballs w/ installers is not something that should be done lightly and indiscriminately. --Todd _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
