[Pkg-mono-devel] MonoDevelop.NUnit.dll

[Kent Loobey]

I get the following error whenever I try to run monodevelop.

==============================================
~/projects/mono/samples/chapter1$ monodevelop

** (MonoDevelop:11789): WARNING **: The following assembly referenced

I have a copy of MonoDevelop.NUnit.dll:

/usr/lib/monodevelop/AddIns/NUnit$ ls -l
total 116
-rw-r--r--  1 root root   6025 2005-11-26 11:49 MonoDevelopNUnit.addin.xml
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 103936 2005-11-26 11:49 MonoDevelop.NUnit.dll
/usr/lib/monodevelop/AddIns/NUnit$

On http://www.monodevelop.com/Troubleshooting it says the following:

Debian users only 
Install the nunit and libnunit-cil packages (requires unstable at this 
moment). Due to the separate packaging of nunit, we need to make a symlink so 
that monodevelop knows where to find the pkg-config file. 
    ln -s /usr/lib/pkgconfig/nunit.pc /usr/lib/pkgconfig/mono-nunit.pc

I did this and it makes no difference.

The following is a list of my nunit and libnunit-cil versions:

/usr/lib/pkgconfig# apt-cache policy nunit
nunit:
  Installed: 2.2.6-1
  Candidate: 2.2.6-1
  Version Table:

libnunit-cil:

  Version Table:

Is the problem that nunit.core is looking for a different version of 
MonoDevelop.NUnit.dll?

Do you have any suggestions I might follow to get MonoDevelop to work?

Thanks in advance for any help you might offer.
