[Mono-devel-list] Fresh install on Debian

[Ralf M.]

I was able to successfully compile the mono runtime from a daily 
snapshot (mono-0.28.99.20031125.tar.gz) when the main download 
(mono-0.28.tar.gz) failed (mostly due to the CSIZE macro that has been 
cleaned in between, it was conflicting with the one in termios.h and the 
errors did not look like the ones you're showing)

The OS is a debian/ppc woody (Linux macross 2.4.20 #22 Mon Apr 28 
19:16:41 PDT 2003 ppc  740/750 GNU/Linux).
