[Gtk-sharp-list] ComboBox is missing

[Rafael Teixeira]

Hi Gilles,

Well the documentation (monodoc) states that it is available only on
GTK# 2.4 and up, so you need to reference the gtk-sharp-2.0 package.


mcs ... -pkg:gtk-sharp-2.0 ...

Hope it helps,

PS. to the list: We should document somewhere what package should be
referenced for a given set of API versions, as it really isn't easy
for newcomers, to find the historical reasons for the current 2
packages for GTK#, and where the (moving) version borders are.
