Can't make gtk-sharp 2.4.2

[weeniewhite]

When I try to make gtk-sharp, make tells me that csc.exe cannot be executed.

How can I make it run?

According to this thread, csc is the C# compiler that comes with MS .NET SDK. It is needed to build the class libraries.

What distro are you using? Have you checked your package manager for gtk#?

I'm using Arch linux 0.7.1 Noodle. I tried to download gtk#, mono, monodevelop, etc with my package manager(pacman).

But since I use an old arch linux version, I can't install packages from internet with pacman. I would have to upgrade all the system with pacman and try monodevelop. The problem is that I use a 56k which likes to disconnect automatically.

Using ./configure in gtk-share's dictionary gave me an error. I needed csc.exe. So I took a friend's csc.exe file who uses arch linux. But I can't run it.

[bryansmith]

I've used Arch Linux before - is it not hard to maintain an Arch system without a consistent network connection?

Anyway, back to gtk#. What package proivides csc? Download that package and install it. You may be missing files from the package.

I've found the packages I needed on distro.biblio.org and it works now. Thanks anyway.

I have exactly the same problem. What packages did you use?
