There is a little problem here  :-)

mono-core requires libgdiplus.  When I browsed the extra/ directory, I
saw libgdiplus in there.  BUT,

# yum --disablerepo \* --enablerepo=extras install libgdiplus
(snip)
Nothing to do

# yum --disablerepo \* --enablerepo=centosplus install libgdiplus
(snip)

This was why centosplus had to be enabled to install mono.  I am sure
Johnny can "fix" this problem easily. :D
