[Mono-list] Debian support

[Mike Christensen]

I get:

root at Mono24:~# apt-get install libglib-2.0-dev
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree      
Reading state information... Done
E: Couldn't find package libglib-2.0-dev

If I do: apt-cache pkgnames glib I get:

root at Mono24:~# apt-cache pkgnames glib
glibc-pic
glib-java
glibc-2.7-1
glibc-doc-reference
glibc-doc
glibc-source

Are any of these what I need?
