I am trying to get sharp-musique up and running on my machine. To get sharp-musique working I need a working version of gtk-sharp2. After attempting to install the current 2006 version and failing, I downloaded the gtk-sharp2 source rpm (using the standard 2.3.91 src rpm from the 2006 Repository).

My machine is setup with standard Mandriva 2006 and then updated against the standard MDV 2006 update source and then updated against the PLF and the MDE sources.

I do not have a problem re-building the RPMS but I have come across a problem when installing the binaries. It is coming up with a message "gtk-sharp2-2.3.91-6rjm.i586 (due to unsatisfied mono(System.Drawing)[== 1.0.5000.0])". This is the same message that comes from the original package.

After furhter investigation I discovered that the libmono-runtime-1.1.15-5.mdk2006.0.mde.i586.rpm from http://www.mde.djura.org/2006.0/RPMS/ provides (rpm -q --provides) the following components:


and when I looked at the files in the rpm they are:


I went looking for a source RPM to investigate the problem further, but I could not find one.

My only other course of action it to remove the mde version of mono (this is my current line of attack), or upgrade to 2007 RC1 (and potentially spend the next 2-3 months getting everything right, as I want it.

Could someone help out, please?

I thought in fixing it but since Mandriva 2007 will be out next week i think will be loosing time with this.
