[MonoDevelop] Problem with compiling MonoDevelop 2.2 through Mono 2.6 on Ubuntu 9.10

[asmaster]

Thank you for your answer. Indeed, there seems to be a problem with my bad
mono upgrade. I had 2.4 by default, and I regret I installed 2.6, because
looks like MonoDevelop 2.2 doesn't need 2.6 Mono. I looked at the link you
provided, the process is so complicated for me! Besides, I already messed
the things up.

Is there a way to delete all Monos, and install everything from scratch?

P.S. I don't care about saving the access to Mono applications built into
Ubuntu, I don't use them.

Thank you!
