[Mono-list] Newbie Compiling from CVS

[Daniel Morgan]

Hi,

Your buld of mono succeeded although it looks like it didn't.

Most of them are warnings which can be ignored...

The errors you see are for copying the mcs.exe (C# compiler) and *.dll
(class libraries), such as corlib.dll, System.dll, System.Xml assemblies
from one place to another...  They are being copied from
../../mcs/mcs/mcs.exe and ../../mcs/class/lib/*.dll to your mono install
prefix /bin and /lib.  Since you have never built mcs from cvs and do not
have these files, this is why you get these errors.

The mono build script does not build mcs.exe nor *.dll assemblies.  You have
to get these from the latest monocharge tarball at
http://www.gnome-db.org/~gonzalo/mono/

It this tarball, it contains the mcs.exe and *.dll aseemblies you need.
Untar/ungzip this tarball to your mono/install prefix.

From that monocharge tarball, you can copy mcs.exe to your mcs/mcs and *.dll
to your mcs/class/lib directories.

I couldn't get the mono-build.sh script to work so I've tried to install
from anon CVS using the directions on the go-mono website.

I've logged in and pulled down the mcs mono and gtk-sharp source.

I then enter the mono directory and type ./autogen.sh.
That seems to work fine.

However, when I run make, I get a myriad of errors that have me
frustrated.  Can anyone please help :o)

This is a condensed stderr from make.
