Philip,
I've been doing some mono/linux testing as well. Built a gentoo install running under vmware. So I didn't really expect the cvs nant.exe to run cleanly on linux ( it doesn't ) so I wrote a simple make file that builds nant.core only. - this all builds except the mail task. the console stuff builds too but doesn't run - somthing lacking in the mono app domain implementation. No problem - console driver in nant.core has a main. So I can run a basic build file that uses core tasks ( no compilers yet ) on linux. It fails to load the settings from the config file but still runs.
Moving on to the donettasks assembly now.

Actually, nothing to report with Nant except that the tedious process of
building the gnome libraries and all supporting packages on my older suse linux
system, did finally get me to the point of running a gui debugger on NAnt.  And
the result?  I stepped into an infinite loop.  Same thing with the command line
debugger.  Same thing with a 5 line hello world type program, though I could
step until I accessed a system dll.

So, I am left with the question I posed back awhile.  To debug, I have to
either wait until the debugger stabilizes, or go to something like log4net
where I can assert debug statements (that could be turned off later with a
config file change).  If I were to go that way, I would prefer that the using
log4net statements and the logger setup stay in the code.  Ideally, some
rationale and best practices for leaving logging assertions in the libraries
would be useful too for later debugging purposes.  But, there would have to be
some agreement on style etc. so it didn't turn into chaos.

Any thoughts?
