[Mono-winforms-list] OpenFileDialog , gnome_icon_lookup exception

[Ivan Zlatev]

Seems to me like you are missing libgnomeui, which is used to get the
icons for the files in the GNOME WinForms FileDialog backend.

Which raises the issue of what should the WinForms team do for the
next release. libgnomeui is now deprecated and is going to be removed
- http://live.gnome.org/LibgnomeMustDie.
