Mono problem on Angstrom

GoogleGroups
1

Hi,

I know there people that have gotten Mono working on the BBB running Angstrom. I am fairly new to Linux and BBB, but I have many years of programming experience. So, with that said, here is what I’ve done so far.

opkg update
opkg install mono.

I am simply trying to run the sample Hello World programs at: http://www.mono-project.com/Mono_Basics.

I can run the command line example with no problems.

When I try to run the GTK+ Hello World example with:

gmcs Ex-02.cs -pkg:gtk-sharp-2.0 (Ex-o2.cs is my GTK+ Hello World program)

This is the error I received:

Package gtk-sharp-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gtk-sharp-2.0.pc’
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package ‘gtk-sharp-2.0’ found
error CS8027: Error running pkg-config. Check the above output.

When I try to run the .NET Windows Form Hello World example with:

gmcs Ex-03.cs -pkg:dotnet (Ex-03.cs is my .NET Windows Form Hello World program)

Package dotnet was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `dotnet.pc’
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package ‘dotnet’ found
error CS8027: Error running pkg-config. Check the above output.

Can anyone help with what I’m sure is an easy fix?

Thanks!

try:
opkg install gtk-sharp-2.0

To get the libs you’ll need for the gtk example.

I get the following response (and I did opkg update first):

root@beaglebone:~# opkg install gtk-sharp-2.0
Unknown package ‘gtk-sharp-2.0’.
Collected errors:

  • opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package gtk-sharp-2.0.
