Arch Linux User Repository

According to the issue described by kingkhan94, https://github.com/mono/monodevelop/issues/8006, for the last year or so MonoDevelop 8.0 has not been buildable on anything but Mac. The community has created a fork for a new environment at https://github.com/dotdevelop/dotdevelop.

MonoDevelop (8.X) no loger compile in Linux (only Mac)...

https://github.com/mono/monodevelop/issues/8006

"Embrace, extend, and extinguish!" (EEE) =[

Possible solution is using https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/monodevelop-bin/ .

Install using pamac following packages

• monodevelop-bin
• mono-msbuild
• mono-msbuild-sdkresolver

Hope this helps!

UPDATE: Install xps to easily debug web projects (ASP.NET)...

microsoft's mono team says that monodevelop open source is abandoned. they won't develop it further, and they develop VisualStudio Mac (based on monodevelop) as closed source.

so the repo

https://github.com/mono/monodevelop

is a sort of archive, and won't receive any commits any more from microsoft or mono-team.

we hope - if we can get a recent working to run on .net 5 and later - that they

• give us maintainer rights on the mono/monodevelop - repo

OR

• find some way that monodevelop can be developed officialy by this community

but first we have to deliver a working, future proof result.

so it would maybe confusing to have a package called "dotdevelop" with monodevelop inside for some time, and then change back to package "monodevelop" again.

It would recommend maybe creating a new package for dotdevelop instead of trying to change this one.

we are working to get mono running on linux again:

https://github.com/dotdevelop

IT'S WORK IN PROGRESS

some users reported that this repo/branch is building on arch:

https://github.com/dotdevelop/dotdevelop/tree/dotdevelop_oe_8.1.5

you can try it so:

git clone -b dotdevelop_oe_8.1.5 https://github.com/dotdevelop/dotdevelop.git

cd dotdevelop/

./configure --profile=gnome

make

Justwant to say that Martine is not alone: I've got the same error.

Compiling of mono5 failed with the following error:

Updated the pkgbuild once again. Can somebody try to build things properly (as fsharp isn't building properly in my build container? :)
