[Mono-list] Debian support

[Mike Christensen]

Just to clarify a few points:

1) Are you downloading Mono tar files or using svn to checkout the 
source?  Does it really matter?

2) libgdiplus was giving me the most problems.  Can I install it using 
apt-get install or do I have to build from sources?  You're saying this 
already comes with the mono sources?  What specifically do I have to build?

3) Can you point out exactly what files you're downloading from where?  
FTP commands would help people not familiar with downloading from the 
command line.

4) Can you provide a bit more informaiton about what I need to download 
and build for mod_mono and Apache?  I don't care a lot about xsp, but 
from what I can tell you need to build xsp to have mod_mono and 
mono_server correct?  I assume this is because they share a bunch of code.

I'm installing a fresh Ubuntu image right now, I'm planning to create a 
step-by-step guide when I get this working with every single command 
line, etc.
