Hi again everyone.
So I've tried to install mono 1.1.3 - and I've finished up in a bigger
mess than when I started. Here's the problem
Firstly I checked the dependencies and find I have icu 2.6.1 as required
and cairo 0.1.23 as stated. Then I uninstalled the existing mono rpms
and monodevelop. This includes uninstalling monodoc, gecko-sharp,
gtksourceview-sharp and gtk-sharp. So we should be starting clean.
I got the 1.1.3 tarball, then as root untarred it, did configure, make,
make install. Everything's fine.
I then got the libgdiplus tarball, and as root did configure --- and it
tells me, '"configure: error: "Did not find Cairo 0.1.22"'. Worse still
is that when I do, "mono --version" I get, "bash: /usr/bin/mono: No such
file or directory".
So I now don't have any kind of working installation at all. Can anyone
help me out of this hole? Please?
Cheers
Peter
