Hi,
You can't expect everyone to change their software design to work
for
Fedora, even if it has disadvantages.
We do expect that, sorry. Bundling libraries is not a solution, fixing
the library not to break its ABI/API every couple days is.
Here I have to agree with you Kevin.
No, we should patch the broken packages to work with the current Mono.Cecil.
And upstream deserves a beating for this attitude. :-/ Why am I not

Shouldn't Fedora take upstream's design into account? It's their
software, after all.
