[Mono-list] why is mono looking for this resource dll?

[Eric Slosser]

I'm trying to configure my Mac app to include Mono inside it so I can run on a machine that doesn't have Mono installed.

I'm launching it from the Terminal, with 'pwd' as ..../MyApp.app/Contents/MacOS.  I've got MONO_PATH and DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH set so assemblies and libraries are found.  My entry point is in a C-based executable that calls mono_main().   Mono v. 2.6.4.

When I launch using my executable on a machine that doesn't have Mono installed, eventually my Foo.dll  calls:

ResourceManager rMgr = new ResourceManager( "Foo.FooText", Assembly.GetAssembly( typeof(Foo) ) );
rMgr.GetString("FOO_STRINGS");

... and mscorlib tells me:

Looking for assembly /Contents/Runtime/Satellite/Foo.resources.dll
Main: Exception: Could not find any resources appropriate for the specified culture or the neutral culture.  Make sure "Foo.FooText.resources" was correctly embedded or linked into assembly "Foo" at compile time, or that all the satellite assemblies required are loadable and fully signed. by mscorlib

  at System.Resources.ResourceManager.GetString (System.String name) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 

This bundle works fine when I launch it using an installed Mono, or if I launch it using my executable on a machine that has Mono installed, so I'm guessing that I've failed to copy some bit of Mono into my bundle, or that I've failed to alter some configuration string.  

All pearls appreciated.
