[Pkg-mono-devel] Rebuilding mono (libmono-system?)

[SiHaswell]

Hi,

I'm new to mono but reasonably familiar with Debian tools etc. 

I have a third-party c# .net based dll that I would like to using in a Linux
environment - so I've been looking at mono. Unfortunately, the dll makes
some calls - specifically SerialPort.DiscardNull - which throw an 'not
implemented' exception.

So I'd like to get the mono sources and rebuild them - initially with a stub
function then possibly look at adding this functionality if required. My
question is how best to go about this. I downloaded a tar file from the
links on the mono website and I can see the source *cs files. Is this the
correct approach or should I be looking at taking the source package from
the Debian archive? If so, which one?

My setup is Debian 7.1 Wheezy, mono v2.10.8.1-8 and using MonoDevelop IDE.

Any advice/suggestions much appreciated.

Many thanks,

Si
