I really don't know what you're missing. I neither use Slackware nor do I know anything about mono.

Google tells me this:
Assemblies and the GAC - Mono

[kcnewslackuser]

Im not sure what im missing either I just know every error i keep having keeps pointing back to the mono.addins . Like it doesnt reconize that its installed when it is sighs i even used slapt-get to install it this time instead of trying to do it on my own.

[kcnewslackuser]

maybe this will help when i try to install monodevelop through gslapt it says that mono tools needs gecko- sharp

[reed9]

Yes, I assume you are missing some dependencies. That's the trouble (or feature for some people) with slackware and not having auto-dependency resolution.

I checked the list of dependencies for monodevelop in Arch. This is everything, down to the base system requirements, so much of it you presumably have installed already.

Not all of this will be applicable to Slackware. Arch uses bleeding edge packages, so it's GNOME 2.6.28, some things like devicekit-disks may not be in use by Slackware. And linux-api-headers is just the kernel headers. That's a new name for the Arch package, so I imagine it will be different in Slackware.

As you can see, because of dependencies like gnome-desktop-sharp, it ends up pulling in much of GNOME.

EDIT: There is some of this you might be able to get away with not having, I don't know. Arch is usually pretty good about only including what is absolutely necessary as dependencies though.

I know ive went through the list . The only one it seems to complain about is gecko even tho ive already tried installing it so I dont know what to do maybe gecko needs to be installed a special way Im not sure.

[reed9]

I don't know how to direct you further, I'm afraid.

If you're really serious about learning and developing with mono, you might consider switching to OpenSuse. They have a history in working with Microsoft and improving interoperability between Linux and Windows. And Miguel de Icaza who started the mono project works for Novell, the company behind Suse Enterprise Linux and OpenSuse.

[kcnewslackuser]

I give up weither I have the files or not i get the same exact errors.

[multios]

kcnewslackuser, what version of Slackware are you using?
Maybe you should have tried downloading/installing libgdiplus from slacky.eu, then install mono from sbopkg?
