Hi everyone,
I’ve kinda successfully updated the entire Mono-D addin structure to the latest version(s) of MonoDevelop/Xamarin Studio right now.
And well, although there have been added a bunch very nice features that makes it very easier to e.g. format tooltips better, the old versioning and release catastrophy continues:
When you’re installing Mono-D on the currently stable Xamarin Studio, you’ll notice that there isn’t any syntax highlighting. When you’ve built Xamarin Studio/MonoDevelop 4.0 on your own, there *will* be highlighting. It’s just ridiculous. It’s caused by renamed color properties of the syntax color schemes. Why the fuck THEY HAD TO DO THIS after they released it!?
Dunno how/if I’m going to stand this through. I guess I may force each of you to build MonoDevelop on your own. Or vice versa, to stick to the 4.0-tagged version of MonoDevelop so I just keep supporting the very stable version – and nothing beyond.

Fuck me.. I just updated Mono-D from the Add-in Manager before reading this.
Simply stick to the stable version of MonoDevelop until Xamarin Studio is stable enough. I already had to uninstall it, and install old MonoDevelop because Mono-D brings an exception when i try to configure the environment…
It is really, really buggy…
You’re right, I’ll remove the ‘master’ support entirely. Just wondering how linuxers are going to get their MD installations then..I guess I’ll zip the binaries and everyone will have to put them in a custom directory.
