Public bug reported: It appears that the Mono version included in Bionic Beaver is `4.6.2.7 +dfsg-1ubuntu1`. This is a fairly outdated version considering that Mono 5.0 stable was released about a year ago. Many new Mono programs require a Mono version that is 5.x. For example, Godot states that they require Mono 5.4.
Without upgrading the Mono version, users of new Mono applications will have to manually add a repository to get the latest Mono. http://www.mono-project.com/download/stable/#download-lin-ubuntu This is not ideal, we should upgrade the Mono version in the Ubuntu repos. ** Affects: mono (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1762310 Title: Upgrade the Mono version to 5.x To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mono/+bug/1762310/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
