[MonoDevelop] Build from git failing on fresh Ubuntu 13.10 installation

[Matt Calder]

Thanks Jeff,

I built gtk# using the following:

apt-get install -y libatk1.0-dev gtk+2.0 libgtk-3-dev
git clone git://github.com/mono/gtk-sharp.git
cd gtk-sharp
git checkout 2.12.22
./bootstrap-2.12 --prefix=/usr
make
sudo make install

So I am using a 2.12 branch. I looked on github and saw there is a specific
"gtk-sharp-2-12-branch" branch, so I tried that but got the same error.

Any other ideas?

Matt
