[MonoDevelop] Monodevelop won't start, seems not to be able to find a library

[Lluis Sanchez]

Try the following: cd to the directory where you have MonoDevelop
installed (something like /usr/lib/monodevelop/bin) and run:

MONO_LOG_LEVEL=debug mono MonoDevelop.exe > debug.log

Maybe the log has some clues about the problem. Look for gnomesharpglue.
