[Mono-list] Install on debian fails

Fri Jan 13 09:07:42 UTC 2017

Hi !

Thanks for your investigation!
That is exactly, what I've done (and wrote initially).
The mono-xamarin.list contains two entries, the second
one is that '.. libjpeg62...'.

But, in opposite to William, who used:
>apt-get install mono-complete
I used
>apt-get install -t wheezy mono-complete

I've pin'ned my system to 900 to not accidentally
install something form the backports repository,
which I need for some rare things. So my prefs are:
Package: *
Pin: release n=jessie
Pin-Priority: 900

I came to the "-t" argument, because I use this way,
if I install from backports.

Now, I tried again with just plain:
>apt-get install mono-complete

This succeeds, but installed mono 3.2.8 ....

No I have further headdache. It is a zfs dataset,
I restored the last snapshot and now, it can wether
mount nor unmound (just opened a help call there) ...
Just cannot boot this time.

Anyway, I would like to hear opinions about this.
Thanks,
Manfred
