a) You have mixed together two different Mono versions, resulting in a
broken Mono installation. Please read
http://mjhutchinson.com/journal/2007/11/08/how_not_break_mono and
http://www.mono-project.com/Parallel_Mono_Environments
b) You are writing to the wrong mailing list. This list is for the
IDE, MonoDevelop.
c) The mailing lists are a place for discussions.To report bugs,
please use bugzilla
