I did manage to find something that worked for me in the end but the great news is that Xamarin will be improving Linux support! See part IV http://mcraveiro.blogspot.co.uk/2014/08/nerd-food-using-mono-in-anger-part-iv.html.<br /><br />Also keeping a keen eye on vNext, hopefully I'll get to play with it in the next few months!Marco Craveirohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01039195055988254979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2672427473119923109.post-74169069748820382332014-06-23T23:26:58.536-07:002014-06-23T23:26:58.536-07:00Thanks for the follow-up link Marco.

It seems that when I did build it a few weeks ago that the state of the Git repository was better than it is now.<br /><br />I actually changed from Debian to Xubuntu so that I could use the MonoDevelop package, as the Ubuntu package was newer than the Debian Wheezy package. Long story short, for our product there are too many hurdles and distractions to move completely to Linux/Mono now. As such, we're going to stay with Visual Studio for the time being.<br /><br />I'll be keeping a close on ASP.NET vNext though, as I think there are some extremely exciting things coming there :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00397129963221699821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2672427473119923109.post-3597754108768590212014-06-02T14:27:05.134-07:002014-06-02T14:27:05.134-07:00Brendan, good post on vNext here: http://graemechr...Brendan, good post on vNext here: http://graemechristie.github.io/graemechristie/blog/2014/05/26/asp-dot-net-vnext-on-osx-and-linux/<br /><br />Will use these instructions to set myself up methinks...Marco Craveirohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01039195055988254979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2672427473119923109.post-27967758305206542112014-05-27T04:19:57.801-07:002014-05-27T04:19:57.801-07:00Very interesting Brendan - really looking forward ...Very interesting Brendan - really looking forward to your post! I tried building MonoDevelop from master but hit a problem with the mono-addin.

I'll be putting a blog post up on my personal blog (brendaningram.com) soon if you're interested. Actually, Saturday was spent migrating from MSSQL2012 to PostgreSQL 9.4 and Sunday spent on Mono, so all in all, I'd say that's pretty good progress, considering it takes 2 days just to (re)install Windows 7 and all the relevant apps!<br /><br />The main difference to what you've done is that I didn't install using the packages, I built everything from source. In the overall scheme of things it was pretty painless, but there were a few quirks (as is expected building from source). If you haven't done it already, give it a go. MonoDevelop 5.1 (current version in Git master) is pretty cool, and of course, as you say, the latest version of Mono in particular is better.<br /><br />Next stop for me - getting some ASP.NET vNext code happening in Mono.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00397129963221699821noreply@blogger.com
