Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: monodevelop

This one is straightforward, if baffling: I installed Monodevelop from
the repositories on Mint 7 (based on Ubuntu 9.04), and every time I try
to launch it it just shows the first stage of the splash screen and
hangs there.

The only terminal output I get is "WARNING: Cannot find Mozilla
directory containing libgtkembedmoz.so. Some Addins may not be able to
function. Please set MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME to your Mozilla directory." This
is the problem reported in Bug #212467,
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/monodevelop/+bug/212467 .
Following the instructions there seems to make that message go away, but
then there's no terminal output at all; the thing just hangs same as
usual.

System Monitor shows two Monodevelop processes with different IDs. One
rapidly consumes about half of the CPU and 1 GB or so of memory, but is
listed as having a Waiting Channel of "0." The other uses about 500 MB
of memory and 0% CPU, and has a Waiting Channel of "do_wait." I think I
saw it briefly where the two processes had the same ID and were each
using about half the CPU, but that was only briefly, and it was back to
normal the next time I looked at it.

No idea what the problem is.
