[Opensim-dev] [opensim 0005007]: Some scripts require installing more than the default mono release

[Melanie]

No, but the IRC or this list are right place for it , NOT Mantis. If
it's not a coding error, it doesn't belong in Mantis.

I can't access that website so I can't get the script in question.

However, it is understood that you MUST be running OpenSim on a
machine that is capable of compiling it. GMCS is part of Mono and
it's needed to compile scripts.

If a distro has cut Mono down into a user and a developer package,
you MUST have the developer package. This is because scripts are
compiled to normal assemblies, and the CodeDom tools do this by
calling the external gmcs.exe. If that is not there, scripts will
not work.

If a distro makes distinctions there, it's that distro that is at
fault, not OpenSim.

Therefore, the place for that is IRC or here, not Mantis.

I have stopped answering "support" type questions in Mantis tickets
because it gets abused as a forum. OpenSim has no forum. It has a
mailing list.
