[Mono-winforms-list] newbie questions trying to get winforms working

[dan]

I was having some trouble with Windows.Form in mono, but I think I got 
it working.  So far, everything seems to run in Mono in FC4, XP and 
CE.NET with the compact framework.  But so far, that's only if you build 
it against the Compact Framework dlls with the microsoft compiler.  I'm 
not sure why, but for now, that's what I'm going with.  A few things 
struck me as odd:

Is it right that there are multiple version of the libraries in the build?:
$rpm -ql mono-winforms | grep System.Drawing.Design.dll
/usr/lib/mono/gac/System.Drawing.Design/1.0.5000.0__b03f5f7f11d50a3a/System.Drawing.Design.dll
/usr/lib/mono/gac/System.Drawing.Design/2.0.0.0__b03f5f7f11d50a3a/System.Drawing.Design.dll

When I built the file, it wouldn't work with the 2.0.0.0 versions:
$mcs 
-r:/usr/lib/mono/gac/System.Windows.Forms/2.0.0.0__b77a5c561934e089/System.Windows.Forms.dll 
-r:/usr/lib/mono/gac/System.Drawing/2.0.0.0__b03f5f7f11d50a3a/System.Drawing.dll 
practise.cs

####error snipet##########

The 1.0.5 versions worked:
$ mcs 
-r:/usr/lib/mono/gac/System.Windows.Forms/1.0.5000.0__b77a5c561934e089/System.Windows.Forms.dll 
-r:/usr/lib/mono/gac/System.Drawing/1.0.5000.0__b03f5f7f11d50a3a/System.Drawing.dll 
practise.cs

Also, the export MONO_PATH=/usr/lib/mono/2.0/ wasn't set with the 
installer (www.nrpms.net) for fedora core 4.  I poked around the mono 
site and found that one. I dumped it in here:

$ more /etc/profile.d/mono.sh
#!/bin/sh
export MONO_PATH=/usr/lib/mono/2.0/
