Hello Gabriel,

Please run: yum install mono-opt-devel
explanation: I first built mono-opt for Ubuntu and CentOS, all in one
rpm. Then I built it for OpenSUSE, and rpmlint complained about
development libraries in the main rpm, so I had to split it into rpm
and devel rpm. I could have made a distinction in the rpm, because
CentOS would have been fine with all in one rpm, but I was too lazy I
guess...

There are more mono related packages available, please browse

All the best,
   Timotheus
