[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 612334] [NEW] Monodevelop has unhandled exception when trying to add an XML schema

[Jim Campbell]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: monodevelop

I experienced an unhandled exception in Monodevelop when trying to add
an XML schema.

dpkg -l monodevelop
||/ Name                Version             Description
+++-===================-===================-======================================================
ii  monodevelop         2.4+dfsg-1ubuntu1   Development Environment for GNOME


To recreate, just select Edit > Preferences > XML Schemas > Add

You'll then see an unhandled exception with the text below:

I did not experience this error with Monodevelop 2.2.  Thanks for your help!
