[Mono-list] Centos 5.0

[monkeyx]

Sorry for the delay in replying, I could add this to a wiki if anyone can
poiint me in right direction

You should have added Development tools during install. If not here is a
list of packages to install, that I used.
For Mono 
yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
yum install glib*
For libgdiplus
yum install libtiff-devel.i386
yum install libjpeg-devel.i386
yum install libpng-devel.i386
yum install giflib-devel.i386
yum install libexif-devel.i386
yum install libX11-devel.i386
yum install freetype-devel.i386
yum install fontconfig-devel.i386

I downloaded the following packages
mono-1.2.3.1.tar.gz 
libgdiplus-1.2.3.tar.gz

The first time I tried to install mono, I had issues relating to winforms
and gdiplus errors. I had noticed during mono build that it appeared to look
for gdiplus during the ./configure for mono. So is I started from stratch
but build gdiplus first and used a non default prefix ie prefix=/usr  and
everything worked.

Unpack tar files

tar xzvf libgdiplus-X.XX.tar.gz; cd libgdiplus-X.XX
./configure --prefix=/usr; make; make install
Note default –prefix is /usr/local which may be applicable to your
distrubtion.

tar xzvf mono-X.XX.tar.gz; cd mono-X.XX
./configure --prefix=/usr; make; make install
Note default –prefix is /usr/local which may be applicable to your
distrubtion.

You should then be able to run programs using mono appname or associate your
application with mono in Gnome/KDE
