[MonoDevelop] How to repair latest broken Monodevelop build on Ubuntu Linux 14.04?

[Frank Chang]

  We would like to repair the latest broken  Monodevelop build on Ubuntu
Linux 14.04. First, I purged mono-complete & monodevelop and followed the
steps in this article:
http://gettingsharper.de/2014/10/07/get-and-compile-the-latest-monodevelop-on-ubuntulinux.
The makefile make process halts early complaining of
"editor/GtkWorkarounds.cs(73,40): error CS0246: The type or namespace name
`Gtk' could not be found.

Here is the C# compiler command line used by the Monodevelop main folder
Makefie

Target CoreCompile:
                        Tool /home/vend/lib/mono/4.5/mcs.exe execution

I thought we were missing an assembly reference apparently because nuget
restore does not fetch the correct GTK and GNOME libraries. Later, A
Xamarin expert told me that gtk and gnome libraries are not on nuget So,
you have to install them yourself.

  Then  I installed the gtk and gnome libraries using sudo apt-get install
gnome-devel and ran ./configure --profile=stable on monodevelop and
generated a Makefile which contains a section called GTK_SHARP_LIBS which
references libraries I know for certain that are stored on my Lenovo
desktop computer.

   When the Makefile hits the Target CoreCompile section it tries to
compile C# source files which use the gtk-sharp assembly. Apparently , In
the main Monodevelop makefile, the compilation of C# source files which use
the gtk-sharp assembly does not explicitly reference the gtk-sharp
assembly. Is there a way to repair that as well as the entire latest
Monodevelop compile and install?
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you very much
     Frank
