The Mono Project aims to make developers productive and happy: Mono 2.2 is our gift to the world. Sponsored by Novell (http://www.novell.com), the Mono open source project has an active and enthusiastic contributing community and is positioned to become the leading choice for development of Linux applications.
Mono is available in the current stable Debian release and in later versions. To develop software with Mono, install the mono-devel package on Etch (4.0) using aptitude or similar package manager.
For Lenny (testing) or Sid (unstable), install the mono-2.0-devel package.
The following official versions are available:
| Debian Etch (4.0): | 1.2.2.1 |
| Debian Lenny (testing): | 1.9.1 |
| Debian Sid (unstable): | 1.9.1 |
| Debian Experimental: | 2.0.1 |
Unofficial Backport Packages
Debian Backports
Users of Debian 4.0 (Etch) can install Mono 1.9.1 by using apt-get or aptitude from the backports.org (http://www.backports.org) repository. Backports.org is a community project driven by Debian Developers to ship latest Debian packages for Debian/Stable users.
To develop with the latest version of Mono available, follow the instructions at backports.org (http://www.backports.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=instructions) to enable the repository, then run:
aptitude -t etch-backports install mono-2.0-devel
meebey.net
Alternatively, you can install Mono 1.9.1 and MonoDevelop 1.0 by using apt or aptitude from the debian.meebey.net/etch-backports repository. This repository is driven by the official package maintainer of the Debian Mono packages.
Add this line to your /etc/apt/sources.list file:
deb http://debian.meebey.net/etch-backports /
And then install or upgrade your Mono and MonoDevelop using:
apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade
or
apt-get update && apt-get install monodevelop
Unofficial Preview Packages
Users of Debian Unstable (sid) can use this APT repository to install Mono and related packages that are not yet uploaded or accepted in Debian.
Add this line to your /etc/apt/sources.list file:
deb http://debian.meebey.net/ /
