[Pkg-mono-devel] help with 428611

[Sam Clegg]

I've got a rather strange bug with booc.exe:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=428611

The binary seem to stop working in the absence of libmono1.0-cil but it
does not depend directly on this package via the normal ".assembly
extern" method (and hense dh_clilibs doesn't figure it out).

One solution is to simply add this library as an explicit dependancy.
Before I do this I thought I see if anyone knew why booc might break in
the way that is does when these libraries are missing.  No error about
missing dlls, instead:

ERROR: An error occurred during the execution of the step
'Boo.Lang.Compiler.Steps.EmitAssembly': 'Object reference not set to an
instance of an object'.

cheers,
sam
