Thanks for the info, I realized what I was doing wrong.

I got your same error when I first installed, but I re installed after
running this bash script:

#!/bin/bash -x
. /etc/profile
export MONO_PREFIX=/opt/mono
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$MONO_PREFIX/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$MONO_PREFIX/lib/pkgconfig
export XDG_DATA_DIRS=$MONO_PREFIX/share
export XDG_DATA_HOME=$MONO_PREFIX/share
export MONO_GAC_PREFIX=$MONO_PREFIX:/usr
PATH=$MONO_PREFIX/bin:$PATH
PS1="\n[mono-dev] $PS1"


which did get rid of that error, about the XDG stuff. But what I didn't
realize was by doing that I was telling it to ONLY search in /opt/mono/share

now that I included the other folders its working great.


Thanks again for your help.
