[Mono-list] Building mono debugger

[Helge Lenuweit]

Thanks Jacek,

I have found the patch you mentioned and managed to compile the 
debugger. However, I may simply not be clever enough to make use of it. 
In my first naive attempt, I located "mdb.exe" and started it with my 
exe as a parameter. Here are the first lines of the output:

Mono Debugger
EXCEPTION: Mono.Debugger.SymbolTableException: 
`MONO_DEBUGGER__debugger_info' has version 43, but expected 41.

Again, for me to continue the adventure, I appreciate any hint, how-to 
or other help. In the meantime, I will stick with lots of 
Console.WriteLine()s for debugging :-)

Regards,
Helge
