tomboy-1.14.1 won't build on my system with the default mono install: dev-lang/mono-4.4.1.0.

Code:

checking for DBUS... yes
checking for MONO_ADDINS... yes
checking for GNOME... yes
checking for GTKSHARP... yes
checking for Mono 2.0 GAC for Mono.Cairo.dll... not found
configure: error: missing reqired Mono 2.0 assembly: Mono.Cairo.dll


Downgrading mono to dev-lang/mono-2.10.9-r2 and rebuilding al dev-dotnet packages allowed me to compile and install tomoby, but it fails when clicking on any of the tray items such as "Create a new note":

Code:

Unhandled Exception: System.MissingMethodException: Method not found: 'System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.StructureToPtr'.

Bug on debian and relative patch.
I think you need change patch for search mono lib version 4.4 (in patch is 4.5), but not sure.

Thanks. I didn't run across these bug reports in my searches.

This looks like a step in the right direction, but it looks like it would require some tweaking to work.

The relevant section of the patch:

Code:

+-   AC_MSG_CHECKING([for Mono 2.0 GAC for $asm.dll])
++   AC_MSG_CHECKING([for Mono 4.5 GAC for $asm.dll])
+    if test \
+-      -e "$($PKG_CONFIG --variable=libdir mono)/mono/2.0/$asm.dll" -o \
+-      -e "$($PKG_CONFIG --variable=prefix mono)/lib/mono/2.0/$asm.dll"; \
++      -e "$($PKG_CONFIG --variable=libdir mono)/mono/4.5/$asm.dll" -o \



I have to admit I can't really read diff files, but this looks like it wouldn't work on my system with Mono 4.0 GAC. Perhaps someone could enlighten me.

I discovered that app-misc/gnote is a more or less drop-in replacement for app-misc/tomboy. It uses the same database files, but the interface is not nearly as slick.

So I have access to my 800+ notes until I can get tomboy back.

If you want try patch download this (I changed path for mono 4.4).
For apply patch use /etc/portage/patches
