[MonoDevelop] Problems Compiling MonoDevelop

Fri Feb 29 10:42:11 EST 2008

Okay, I tried doing as you said, and I added the etch-backports 
repository from debian backports to my Ubuntu installation, seeing as I 
figured they were similar enough, and upgraded to Mono 1.2.6.

I rebuilt mono-addins 0.3 with the new Mono and installed it, and then I 
tried building MonoDevelop, here's what I get.

./MonoDevelop.Ide.Gui/IdeStartup.cs(375,22): warning CS0618: 
`Mono.GetOptions.Options' is obsolete: `This class is being obsoleted, 
there is no replacement, we suggest you use your own option parsing'

keyword if hiding was intended

related to previous warning)

implementation, add the override keyword. Otherwise add the new keyword

Looks roughly the same as what I got before.. configure output:

monodevelop-0.19/svn/monodevelop$ ./configure --prefix=`pkg-config 
--variable=prefix mono`

Packages included in the build:
    main
    extras/JavaBinding
    extras/BooBinding

Do I need to do something after upgrading the packages? Because it seems 
like upgrading Mono made no difference.
