[MonoDevelop] MonoDevelop crash on startup

Tue May 17 17:27:11 EDT 2005

I've just install fedora core 3 mono and its packages from
http://www.go-mono.com/download/fedora-3-i386/

When I run monodevelop I get this immediately:

** (./MonoDevelop.exe:3811): WARNING **: Missing method
get_RemainingArguments in assembly
/usr/lib/monodevelop/bin/MonoDevelop.exe, type Options

Unhandled Exception: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not
set to an instance of an object

On the other hand, running "monodoc" works just fine. Any idea what's
going wrong?

I don't know whether this helps, but I ran "monodevelop --trace" and got
this output:
