Installing Mono (updated)

Greetings,

Time to pay attention. We need Mono, Mono Compiler, and Mono-Develop. Why? What are they?

Mono is the .NET replacement for Linux.
Mono Compiler, in our case we want gmcs because it compiles .NET 2 which RunUO v2 is written in, builds the executible file.
Mono-Develop is an IDE (or GUI) to edit C# scripts with. The Linux version of Microsoft Visual C# Express or SharpDevelop.

Open Adept Manager and type "mono" in the search field.

For now lets choose "mono". Look at the Candidate Version. Notice that it is version 1.1.17.1. If you go to Mono's web site you will see the current version is 1.2. Bah, this means we will have to manually install our own updated version of Mono.

NOTE: If you are reading this and the Candidate Version has been updated to v1.2 or better, click Request Install and ignore the following ramblings post of "Compiling Mono" or "Manually Installing Mono".
