[MonoDevelop] Re: Unable to run monodevelop

[jeffjacobsbald at aim.com]

All,
I was able to get monodevelop version 0.7.0.0 to work under mandriva LE 
2005. I first had to get urpmi pointed properly.
This was accomplished through use of the following urpmi commands:

urpmi.addmedia plf-free 
ftp://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/linux/plf/mandriva/free/2006.0 
with hdlist.cz

urpmi.addmedia plf-nonfree 
ftp://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/linux/plf/mandriva/non-free/2006

.0 with hdlist.cz

urpmi.addmedia --update updates 
ftp://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/linux/MandrivaLinux/official/upd

ates/2006.0/main_updates/ with media_info/hdlist.cz

urpmi.addmedia main 
ftp://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/linux/MandrivaLinux/official/200

6.0/i586/media/main with media_info/hdlist.cz

urpmi.addmedia jpackage 
ftp://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/linux/MandrivaLinux/official/200

6.0/i586/media/jpackage with media_info/hdlist.cz

followed by:
urpmi mono
urpmi monodevelop

I see that monodevelop is up to version 1.1.13.6 so the mandriva rpms 
are a bit behind. In the future,
I'll attempt to learn to compile the sources, but for now I have an IDE 
from which this old C programming
dog might learn new tricks.

Subject: Unable to run monodevelop

  All and anyone,

  I have been attempting to run monodevelop after installing mono using 
the mono-1.1.13.4_0-installer.bin. My distro is Mandriva LE 2005 which 
was upgraded from Mandrake 10.2.

 uname -a shows:

 [root at jjacobs ~]# uname -a
  Linux jjacobs 2.6.12-12mdksmp #1 SMP Fri Sep 9 17:43:23 CEST 2005 i686 
Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.40GHz unknown GNU/Linux

  mono is installed in /opt/mono-1.1.13-4. I have added the environment 
variable $MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME with the value /usr/local/mozilla which is 
the directory where libxpcom.so lives.

  I keep getting the error, "Cannot find mozilla installation directory. 
Please set MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME to your mozilla directory."

  Below is a sequence of commands that show an attempt to run 
monodevelop. The preceding commands and following "ls" show how my 
envrionment is set up.

 [root at jjacobs mozilla]# echo $MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME
 /usr/local/mozilla
 [root at jjacobs mozilla]# cd $MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME
 [root at jjacobs mozilla]# pwd
 /usr/local/mozilla
 [root at jjacobs mozilla]# ls libxpcom.so
 libxpcom.so*
 [root at jjacobs mozilla]# cd /opt/mono-1.1.13.4/bin/
 [root at jjacobs bin]# ./monodevelop
  Cannot find mozilla installation directory. Please set 
MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME to your mozilla directory

  Any help in getting monodevelop to find the mozilla installation 
directory would be greatly appreciated.

 Sincerely,

 Jeff Jacobs
