[mono-android] Linker crashing "Failed to resolve System.Console setforegroundcolor"

[Liam Houlahan]

Hi Jon

Thanks for your reply.

The point I was trying to make when I said that I initially built this app
using the initial versions of MonoDroid is that it used to work fine. The
app is on Google Play right now. It is only since I am building the app
with the newer version of MonoDroid that the linker no longer works.

There is no reference to System.Console.ForegroundColor in my app so I
assume that the reference is in dotnetzip.

However if you are saying that there is no support in MonoDroid or
Silverlight, was there previously support? I ask this because the dotnetzip
dll is the same as the one that I am using in the version of my app that is
on Google Play.

Thanks
Liam
