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

Sun Dec 6 06:17:20 UTC 2015

Hi

gnome-devel doesn't contain current GTK libs. But anyways the mono is too
old for the current monodevlop to run properly.

If you want to build it from source I recommend setting up a parallel
environment.

See:
http://mikemdblog.blogspot.de/2013/09/how-to-set-up-monodevelop-on-linux.html

It's a bit outdated (some packages are missing) but still valid. I'll
update the blog entry the next time I reinstall :).

Regards
Mike
