Hi,
I have a similar problem on a console application that use a couple 
of libraries. The main executable is built against 1.1 version of 
libraries but I installed it the first time (so without replacing 
file already run) with version 1.2 of the same libraries.
With MS Framework it works well, in mono I receive an error saying 
that it doesn't found version 1.1.
In Mono specific version reference is implicit? I always have to 
rebuild to be able to use a new version of a library? Or there's some 
configuration? Or I'm doing something wrong (the most probably option ehehe)?
