I have recently installed mono 3.2.8 and monodevelop 4 from the Ubuntu 14.04 software centre. However, when I try to run monodevelop from the dash menu, nothing happens - due to this, I tried to run it from the terminal and it said "The assembly mscorlib.dll was not found or could not be loaded. It should have been installed in the /usr/lib/mono/4.5/mscorlib.dll directory." How do I fix this? I have already trie a variety of things that do not work. I have already tried running the following commands:
sudo apt-get install mono-complete
sudo apt-get install mono-devel
sudo apt-get install mono-gmcs
sudo apt-get install mono-dmcs
sudo apt-get install libmono-system.data2.0-cil
sudo apt-get install libmono-system2.0-cil
sudo apt-get install libmono2.0-cil
sudo apt-get install --reinstall monodevelop
sudo apt-get install --reinstall mono-runtime
None of these worked. What shall I do?
Edit
Now, I installed libmono-corlib4.0-cil and libmono-corlib4.5-cil, and that problem has been fixed. However, a new message has now appeared:
Missing method .ctor in assembly /usr/lib/monodevelop/bin/MonoDevelop.Ide.dll, type System.Runtime.CompilerServices.ExtensionAttribute
