How to install and run Monodevelop 2.4.1 on Ubuntu 10.10 (Marevick)?

Question

I need .NET 4.0 but I was unable do find a PPA that allows me to install version 2.4.1 and the necessary dependencies.

Answer 1

Here's how I did it:

build the 2.8.2 from using the the script here:

• http://www.integratedwebsystems.com/2011/01/mono-2-8-2-script-updated-for-ubuntu-and-fedora/

and then installed the launchpad - https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/maverick/i386/monodevelop/2.4+dfsg-3ubuntu2

and then in monodevelop: Edit -> Preferences -> .Net Runtime and add the new source

Did that work?
