[MonoDevelop] Build MonoDevelop with makefiles. How?

[koyatole]

Hello.
I want to work with MonoDevelop in a Debian distribution, as well as in
Windows (Vista). For none of those operating system(s) (distributions), a
package exists. So I read on the Internet the instructions to build
MonoDevelop with the source code (e.g.
http://www.monodevelop.com/MonoDevelopWin32).
So far so good, but here is my question (which seems to be bizarre coming
from an experienced programmer, but in fact I'm rather a Windows programmer
and furthermore one who has always made use of Visual Studio --> so no
experience at all with makefiles) :

The compiler/linker/builder of Mono is mcs/gmcs. I succeeded in building
some test programs with it. But the source code of MonoDevelop exists of a
lot of cs files and makefiles. I don't have any idea how to begin making an
assembly with those files...

I don't find anything useful on the forums or the Internet.

Thanking in advance...
