[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 1254253] Re: monodevelop crashes on startup directly after installation

[Testing Tigerwolf]

I have solve the problem on my desktop with the following method :
1. apt-get purge monodevelop
2. apt-get autoremove
3. apt-get install monodevelop

I notice that 131/520 dependencies was missing from the previous installation.
I think I had reproduce once time this problem using a package manager instead of the terminal
==> remains to investigate

See the list of 131 missing packages from the previous installation

Joe Ipson, you said you encounters the same problem, could you please verify your Monodevelopp installation.
I hope it will solve this problem as for me.

Title:
   monodevelop crashes on startup directly after installation

Status in “monodevelop” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  What I have done:
  ---------------------
  1. Install monodevelop using apt-get
  2. Launch it
        - using graphical interface
        - using the Konsole
        - using the Konsole with the "no-splash" option

  What happens:
  -----------------
  1. No installation error, everything seems ok at this stage
  2.
       - using graphical interface:
          nothing happens
          no "monodevelop" process in KSysGuard

       - using the Konsole:
          nothing happens
          still no "monodevelop" process in KSysGuard

       - using the Konsole with the "no-splash" option:
       An error occurs, and a error window appears : "MonoDevelop could not start. The following error has been detected :
       Method not found: 'MonoDevelop.Components.Docking.DockFrame.ToCairoColor'."

       For more information, see attachment
  "MonoDevelop_crash_at_launch".

  
  Notes:
  ---------
  This bug concerns Ubuntu 13.10 "Saucy Salamender" and alternatives (like Kubuntu)
  A similar bug was detected on previous Ubuntu versions (see Bug #244683 )
  But this bug was set to "Fix Release". Indeed, this problem doesn't appears just after the installation from the official release CD image, but reappears after an update
  ==> TO DO : trying to detect the problematic update

  
  I also detect the same dysfunction on Debian 7.0 "Wheezy"
