[Mono-list] Strange permissions problem

[James Fitzsimons]

Hi all,

This is a bit embarrassing, but I can't figure out whats wrong. I have
mono-1.1.3 installed and I have somehow broken my install such that I
can now only run mcs/gmcs and mono applications as root.

If I run mcs from the prompt as a normal user it simply hangs e.g.
james@athos src $ mcs

<hang>

where as if I run as root or with root permissions (i.e sudo) :
james@athos src $ sudo mcs
Password:
error CS2008: No files to compile were specified
Compilation failed: 1 error(s), 0 warnings
james@athos src $ 

I have checked the permissions on the executables but they look ok. eg.
james@athos src $ ls -la /usr/local/bin/mcs
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 72 Jan 14 21:48 /usr/local/bin/mcs
james@athos src $ ls -la /usr/local/lib/mono/1.0/mcs.exe
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 751616 Jan 14 21:47
/usr/local/lib/mono/1.0/mcs.exe
james@athos src $

I have tried reinstalling mono but not luck :-(

Anybody have any ideas?

Cheers,
James Fitzsimons
