[MonoDevelop] Error compiling from Source on monodevelop-5.0.1-branch

[Martin Thwaites]

Thanks C.J.

What's really annoying is that this did work, I installed 4.something this
way I'm sure.

I do actually need the mono from git as I'm trying to do some updates to
the mono code.

The other annoying part is looking at the Xwt code that's failing, I can't
see how that could ever compile?

Does anyone else have any experience of getting mono from Source working?

Thanks,
Martin
