Description

After a re-installation of Ubuntu, I can no longer re-compile a version of libsecondlife that previously worked. Also, I cannot compile the latest version. (I get the same error).

It looks like I'm missing a library. Does anyone know which one?

Our build server which runs openSUSE is building fine, It looks to me like something is missing in your mono installation. Verify you have all the necessary mono packages installed.

Found it!

libmono-winforms2.0-cil

Maybe this should be added to the Getting Started instructions?

Oh well...maybe this ticket will save someone else some time.
