I have a mono-based package called "lat", which I believe follows the
current packaging guidelines, i.e. it installs lat.exe and its
associated DLLs into %{_libdir}/lat.
The package has dependencies on some mono packages from Core,
particularly avahi-sharp. On x86_64, the avahi-sharp package contains:
/usr/lib/mono/avahi-sharp
/usr/lib/mono/avahi-sharp/avahi-sharp.dll
/usr/lib/mono/gac/avahi-sharp
/usr/lib/mono/gac/avahi-sharp/1.0.0.0__4d116c78973743f5
/usr/lib/mono/gac/avahi-sharp/1.0.0.0__4d116c78973743f5/avahi-sharp.dll
/usr/lib/mono/gac/avahi-sharp/1.0.0.0__4d116c78973743f5/avahi-sharp.dll.config
/usr/lib/mono/gac/avahi-sharp/1.0.0.0__4d116c78973743f5/avahi-sharp.dll.mdb
/usr/lib64/pkgconfig/avahi-sharp.pc
So avahi-sharp.dll is in /usr/lib rather than %{_libdir}
When I try to start lat on x86_64, I get:
$ lat
lat [09776] INFO Starting lat (version 1.2.1.1)

The assembly was not found in the Global Assembly Cache, a path listed
in the MONO_PATH environment variable, or in the location of the
executing assembly (/usr/lib64/lat).

lat [09776] INFO Exiting lat
I can work around this though:
$ MONO_PATH=/usr/lib/mono lat
That works.
So my question is: is my package in error, or is it avahi-sharp? Should
I set $MONO_PATH in /usr/bin/lat?
Paul.
