Some tips if you're having issues:

1. If it complains about not being able to find .net core sdk, you can set the path in the preferences. Set it to /opt/dotnet/dotnet and it'll figure out the rest. (You do need to install dotnet-sdk, though)

2. If it crashes shortly after opening a solution, try disabling the version control add-in (or just disable it in preferences). Worked for me

3. If it works fine for a while and then randomly starts crashing, try applying this diff: https://github.com/mono/linux-packaging-monodevelop/blob/debian/7.5.0.1254-0xamarin1/debian/patches/4647.diff This was recommended to me, but did not actually solve the issue. Maybe it'll work for you, though

4. Logs are in ~/.cache/MonoDevelop/Logs

Please be aware that this package is compiled from source and will download around 400MB of data.

Also remember I don't develop this application, I simply maintain the PKGBUILD, for issues/bugs with the application itself log a report at https://github.com/mono/monodevelop after doing the usual google for a solution.

@TemplarGR Corrected

This PKGBUILD has release version 1 but AUR reports version 2 so AUR helpers constantly prompt for an update even though we have the latest version installed...

UE4 compiles much faster than this program on my computer

This doesn't build when /bin/sh is the dash shell because it uses the pushd bashism. This project should use either SHELL=/bin/bash or #!/bin/bash in any .sh files.

Starting download from https://github.com/fsprojects/Paket/releases/download/5.173.4/paket.exe

Done in 19.59 second(s).

pushd . && cd external/fsharpbinding && mono .paket/paket.exe restore && popd

/bin/sh: 1: pushd: not found

Actually it is more than 400mb, if including submodule. But any how, still need it.

This is what i get on an updated system: https://pastebin.com/qDubCv0q

How to apply the patch that appears in the file of point 3?

@sbrl are you building with mono from the official repos (extra)?

It builds successfully with V5.10.1.47.

This failed to build for me, with these errors: https://hastebin.com/ofekiqukor
