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

What version of bash are you running?

bash --version

Seems the order doesn't seem to matter on machines that I've tested on.

This is the part that confuses me:
karl at ssh:~$ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/opt/mono-1.1.12/lib:

Which is the path where all these libraries are stored.

Damn! Found it.
Changing the line in .bash_profile from:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/opt/mono-1.1.12/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"
to:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/opt/mono-1.1.12/lib"
rectifies the problem.

So, having a delimiter on the end rather than at the start causes the path to be 
mis-interpreted. The world is once again a happy place.

Thanks for reading.
