[Slackbuilds-users] Problem with mono (and probably mono2) on Slackware64

[Thomas Szteliga]

I've compiled KeePass
<http://slackbuilds.org/repository/14.1/misc/KeePass/> with mono
<http://slackbuilds.org/repository/14.1/development/mono/> but there was
a problem and KeePass wouldn't start:

System.TypeInitializationException: An exception was thrown by the type

Then I found this <https://bugzilla.xamarin.com/show_bug.cgi?id=24131>
and after correcting the wrong path `/usr/lib/libMonoPosixHelper.so` to
`/usr/lib64/libMonoPosixHelper.so` in `/etc/mono/config` everything
worked as expected.


So maybe a small update to `mono.Slackbuild` will be required?
