[MonoDevelop] Satellite Assemblies. Where is 'al2' for MonoDevelop on Windows 7?

[Wayne Walter]

Oh, another thing I tried was removing the "de" culture resource file from
the project and try
building that way. It simply gave the same error regarding the "es" culture.
So I went down
the line and it gave the same error for all of them until there were none
more. Then it completed
successfully but when running the GUI, there was a runtime error due to
missing the satellite
assembly.

So again, that seems more evidence that it's the "al2" missing. I searched
for it, where does
MonoDevelop expect to find it?  There isn't one inside the MonoDevelop bin
folder.

Sincerely,
Wayne

    Thanks for a reply. Well, w/o changing anything, I can open the solution
in Visual Studio
    and it correctly creates the resource assembly including German
resources for the 'de' culture.

    So it "seems" still to be the al2 which is not found.   Otherwise, could
it be a difference
    in how to configure satellite assemblies in MonoDevelop vs. Visual
Studio?

    But googling this made it appear the MonoDevelop does satellite
assemblies the same as VS 2008.

    However, frankly, I'm very new to satellite assemblies so that puts me
at a disadvantage. My expertise
    lies in "back end" or server-side software rather than GUI interfaces.

    Wayne

        Is it possible that the file it cannot find is the 'de' culture and
not al2?
