Right - sorry this has been a long time in coming but get all the packages working together ain't easy. This shows you how to install Mono 1.1.8 (from Debian) on Ubuntu Hoary.

Before we begin, some things to remember:


You are mixing Breezy and Hoary packages which is not a good thing but it seems to work alright
You are mixing Debian and Ubuntu packages which is also not a good thing but it seems to work
It has worked for me a on a few machines but it might be different for you
This is NOT recommended if you are unsure of what you are doing
This is NOT recommended if you want to stick to Ubuntu packages only
This will not be recommended by any of the Ubuntu or Debian developers
You can always wait for Breezy :-)


Section 1 - Removing Old Mono from Backports/Hoary Repos

You should remove any Mono packages you already have installed. You must have these remove (if you don't have them installed, running this anyway to check won't harm):

sudo apt-get remove mono mono-utils monodevelop monodoc mono-devel mono-mcs mono-assemblies-arch

Section 2 - Getting Breezy Packages

Some of the Debian packages depend on versions higher than those in Hoary so you need to upgrade to the Breezy ones. You MUST install them in this order for it to work:

mkdir ~/Mono
cd ~/Mono
wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/glibc/libc6_2.3.5-1ubuntu8_i386.deb
wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/glibc/libc6-dev_2.3.5-1ubuntu8_i386.deb
wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/glibc/libc6-i686_2.3.5-1ubuntu8_i386.deb
wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/glibc/locales_2.3.5-1ubuntu8_all.deb
wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-kernel-headers/linux-kernel-headers_2.6.11.2-0ubuntu10_i386.deb
sudo dpkg -i linux-kernel-headers_2.6.11.2-0ubuntu10_i386.deb
sudo dpkg -i libc6_2.3.5-1ubuntu8_i386.deb
sudo dpkg -i locales_2.3.5-1ubuntu8_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i libc6-dev_2.3.5-1ubuntu8_i386.deb
sudo dpkg -i libc6-i686_2.3.5-1ubuntu8_i386.deb

Section 3 - Adding the Repo

Add these lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list (sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list)

## Debian Mono
deb http://debian.meebey.net/ ./

Save and close

Then run

sudo apt-get update

Section 4 - Install Mono Basics

PLEASE NOTE: DO NOT INSTALL mono-assemblies-arch AS IT WILL BREAK YOU SYSTEM!

Just Mono
sudo apt-get install mono libmono0

Mono Development
sudo apt-get install mono libmono0 libmono-dev mono-mcs mono-devel mono-utils

Section 5 - Installing Mono Development Suite

If you want to install MonoDevelop, you need a newer Monodoc (1.0.6) so we need to turn to Debian again:

mkdir ~/Mono/MonoDoc
cd ~/Mono/MonoDoc
wget http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/m/monodoc/monodoc-base_1.0.6-3_all.deb
wget http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/pool/main/m/monodoc/monodoc_1.0.6-3_all.deb
wget http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/pool/main/m/monodoc/monodoc-browser_1.0.6-3_all.deb
wget http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/pool/main/m/monodoc/monodoc-manual_1.0.6-3_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i *.deb

You can now install MonoDevelop with:

sudo apt-get monodevelop

Let me know if it works. I hope it does! But PLEASE be careful and make sure you know what you are letting yourself in for ;-)

And for those doubters:

seb@basestation:~/Mono$ mono -V
Mono JIT compiler version 1.1.8.2, (C) 2002-2005 Novell, Inc and Contributors. www.mono-project.com
TLS: normal
GC: Included Boehm (with typed GC)
SIGSEGV : normal
Globalization: normal
seb@basestation:~/Mono$

So it does work.

maybe a bit offtopic, but is there a way to compile c# code into any linux language ?
I would love to use the mono IDE, but hate the binaries it produces...

The first four links in the second step are outdated - '8' should be changed to '10' before the _i386/all.deb. Also the last command I believe should include 'install'.

It works for me. Thanks a lot.

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
monodevelop: Depends: libgconf2.0-cil (>= 1.9.5) but 1.9.2-2ubuntu1 is to be installed
Depends: libgecko2.0-cil (>= 0.10) but it is not installable
Depends: libglade2.0-cil (>= 1.9.5) but 1.9.2-2ubuntu1 is to be installed
Depends: libglib2.0-cil (>= 1.9.5) but 1.9.2-2ubuntu1 is to be installed
Depends: libgnome2.0-cil (>= 1.9.5) but 1.9.2-2ubuntu1 is to be installed
Depends: libgtk2.0-cil (>= 1.9.5) but 1.9.2-2ubuntu1 is to be installed
Depends: libgtksourceview2.0-cil (>= 0.10) but it is not installable
Depends: libgtksourceview2.0-cil (< 0.11) but it is not installable
E: Broken packages
Any ideas

I sorted the problem by adding the following backports to sources.list

deb http://ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net/ hoary-backports main universe multiverse restricted
deb http://ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net/ hoary-extras main universe multiverse restricted
