[MonoDevelop] MonoDevelop on OSX filters assembly list

[David Eliott]

I¹ve installed Mono 2.2 and MonoDevelop 1.9 (2.0 alpha 2) on a clean install
of Leopard OSX 10.5.5 and there are some problems with MonoDevelop that
renders it unusable:

All assemblies that I wish to use are missing!

If I run a GACUTIL ­L or PKG-CONFIG ‹LIST-ALL then every library is shown
including:

Gtk-sharp-2.0
Glade-sharp
Webkit
Etc...

However, if you run MD 2.0 Alpha 1 or 2, using Mono 2.0.1 or 2.2, you can
only see a partial list of assemblies in MD. Eventhough all of them are
available to mono, MD in this case somehow chooses not to list most of the
assemblies in the GAC.

Only some are shown, allowing only basic Mono apps be created using the
System.* and Mono.* etc. all GTK, Mono.Addins, WebKit, Cairo, Glade, Cocoa
libraries are all missing.

Why would MD choose to not list these assemblies and act as if they are not
truly available? I was under the impression that only the STETIC GUI
designer is disabled in MD, not the ability to create GTK apps entirely!

Someone told me that there is no problem, but unfortunately, even after
sending this problem on the mono-osx mailing list, not a single person has
given me information to help me troubleshoot, nor has anyone confirmed they
are having the same problem.


Any help would be appreciated,

Draek
