[Mono-dev] Mono 2.11.1 compilation error

[Rob Wilkens]

I remember reading an odd sort of requirement in one of the mono pages, 
where it suggested that to build mono, having mono pre-installed for 
your system helps (i.e. building a new version of mono using tools from 
the older version, like gmcs which i believe is the mono compiler).  
This struck me as an odd sort of requirement when i read it.  However, 
here it seems like it's looking for a runnable mono or mcs which is part 
of the mono installation (one is the runtime, the other the compiler).

The mcs stacktrace gives an interesting sort of error:   
System.OutOfMemoryException -- I know little about the machine you're 
compiling on, but perhaps if it's a low memory machine by design, then 
creating a larger swapfile would help get past that particular error.  
I'm not sure how you'd do that for each particular platform, though.

As per the mono-ximian-com site being unavailable: I noticed if i go to 
ximian.com in a web browser, it redirects me to suse.com or something 
like that.  Leads me to believe that it's pointing to a server that has 
either moved or been taken down.  Someone else could probably answer 
that better than me.

If this helps, great-- if it doesn't - well, i tried and again am not an 
expert.  There are experts here though.
