[Mono-devel-list] Can't build monodoc from svn - Success

[Joe Audette]

Ben's suggestion to get gtk-sharp-1-0-branch worked just fine for me. After that I was able to build monodoc and MonoDevelop with no problems.
 
I am one happy camper! Thanks to Ben and Paul and Mike for helping me through the tough spots in getting setup to build from svn! Its all working like a charm now, mono, xsp, mod_mono, monodoc and MonoDevelop!
 
Go mono!

I had this same problem a while back when I wanted to play around with
mono, and I did not want to mess about with a mixed system. I use
Ubuntu Hoary, if I installed the 1.0 gtk-sharp using apt-get then I
get all its dependencies in /usr. Now when I get the latest sources
from SVN, compile and install them, they end up in /usr/local. You
can't change it with --prefix, because of some complaint from profiler
stuff.

Although I tried the mixed solution for a while, it did not work very
well. Here is my suggestion for working from SVN:

1. Clean of all mono related packages from your system.
2. Get mono from SVN. 
3../autogen.sh;make get-monolite-latest;make bootstrap;make install
4. Download the 1.0. gtk-sharp from
http://www.go-mono.com/archive/1.0.4/gtk-sharp-1.0.4.tar.gz
5. Untar, ./configure and make install it.
6. Now go ahead and build monodoc etc.

BTW I once did the symlink thing as well, that is just looking for trouble.

Cheers,

Jacques
