Hi Sebastien,

I appreciate the kind assistance. Originally I had just downloaded the
Gendarme sources, but now I have cecil as well. I followed your
instructions, but since I have next to no experience with configure, I
might have done something wrong - I simply chose as prefix a path
where I might put additional Mono libraries. Is this off the mark, or
is there a particular path I should have chosen instead? Anyway,
configure echoed back to me that the Mono.Cecil module was configured
with the prefix I gave it. I then tried to re-run autogen.sh in the
gendarme directory, but with the same result as before.

Any further help would be greatly appreciated!

Kind regards,
Einar
