I downloaded and ran your script on Ubuntu 10.10

I get the following error:
user@ubuntu1010desktop:~/Desktop$ sh mono_build.sh -v 2.8 -a
mono_build.sh: 103: [[: not found
mono_build.sh: 103: 2.8: not found
mono_build.sh: 103: 2.8: not found

– Error: Only master, 2.10, 2.8, 2.6 versions supported

Any ideas?

Bless you sir. I have been annoyed at being stuck on Mono 2.4, and I’m hopeful that you’ve gotten me past that roadblock. Since about 85% of my development targets Mono, I’ve felt like I was being denied the opportunity to use — or even learn — the more recent C# features. So it’s great to have this easy-to-run way of getting the parallel installation up and running. Thanks so much.

I just want to say thank you!

I’ve been using Ubuntu or Debian for a while and have been looking forward to ASP.Net development. Yours is the first approach I’ve encountered that worked without an associated nightmare of tuning and fiddling.

Thanks for all your hard work!

Sorry to post ANOTHER message, but I found the something with coincidence in the mono_build.sh

I added
INSTALLATION_DIR=/opt/mono-2.10/lib/monodoc/sources

in:
/mono-src-$VERSION/xsp/docs/makefile.am

I used
cd ~/mono-src/xsp
git pull
source mono-2.10-environment
./configure –prefix=/home/melroy/mono-src/mono
make

But still the same error as above.

So because the the error above, I can’t exclude the mono env.

Command:
./mono_build.sh -v 2.10 monodevelop

Ater command, error:
http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/569868/

After:
cd ~/mono-src/xsp
git pull
source mono-2.10-environment
./configure –prefix=/home/melroy/mono-src/mono
make

Still the same error:
http://pastebin.com/5HBRAqPg

I think that is the source of the problem.

Hi Patrick,

Thank you for this script, it will be very useful.
Used the script for a first-time install of mono 2.10.

1. At the end of the script it recommends:
To start a mono-2.10 environment, run: source mono-2.10-env
I think this should be:
source mono-2.10-environment

2. It looks as if monodevelop has a dependency on Mono.Addins

mono-2.10 monodevelop

gives an error
Unhandled Exception: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly ‘Mono.Addins, Version=0.4.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=0738eb9f132ed756′ or one of its dependencies.
