[MonoDevelop] Can't start monodevelop

[Zbynek Vrastil]

I had similar problem when I tried to use Mono and Monodevelop from 
binary installation. It was on Debian and I was getting little bit 
different error, but I think the problem could be the same.
Finally, I have tried to compile everything from source code and during 
the process, I have realized I'm missing some necessary gnome libraries 
(I use KDE by default). It seems that binary installer does not have 
complete dependency checking. I suggest to try to compile the source code.
Anyway, the missing libraries (packages) on my computer was 
libgnomeprintui, gnome-icon-theme and libpanel-applet.

regards, Zbynek
