Public bug reported:
If you install this package (fsharp) and monodevelop and install the
Monodevelop F# add-in and create a project, it fails to build because it
cannot find the FSharp.Core assembly. According to Monodevelop FAQ
http://monodevelop.com/FAQ#Troubleshooting :
"Bacause MonoDevelop does not look for assemblies in the GAC. On Mac and
Linux, MonoDevelop uses pkg-config to locate installed packages and get
the list of assemblies that each package provides. A package specifies
this list of assemblies in a .pc file which has to be installed in the
standard pkg-config directory."
Other CIL packages in Ubuntu have these .pc files. Eg. the libgtk2.0
-cil-dev package installs the following files:
/usr/lib/pkgconfig/gtk-sharp-2.0.pc
/usr/lib/pkgconfig/gtk-dotnet-2.0.pc
The assemblies for these libraries appear in Monodevelop as you might
expect. It would be helpful to have these files in the fsharp package so
that F# would be usable in Monodevelop.
