[Mono-osx] Having a hard time bundling my app as a mac app due to "System.MissingMethodException: Default constructor not found for type System.Configuration.ExeConfigurationHost”

[Jean-Louis 'Hans' Fuchs]

Hello

If you call "Create Mac Package…" in MonoDevelop, select "Don't link assemblies". It is a bit counter intuitive. Linking means removing unused code, which isn't very reliable. By selecting "Don't link assemblies" it will bundle the complete assemblies and you won't get any MissingMethodException exceptions.

Best,
	Jean
