d0niek@d0niek-PC:~> sudo ./instalki/monogame-sdk.run

I had install monodevelop from console, from web http://www.monodevelop.com/download/linux/ and I’m not sure if I made to much mess in my suse.

Can you help me to clean my package and run MonoGame? Of course I can share with you more information but what?

Looks to me that you need to install MonoGame using “su” instead of “sudo.”
I assume this should be OK, am guessing that MonoGame isn’t something that is accessed directly but provides a development framework used within MonoDevelop.

First I created directory /root/.local/share/applications after I login to su and run ./monogame-sdk.run and it finish with success.

Now when I try to run it I got error gtk-sharp, Version=3.0.0.0. I found it on software.opensuse.org but when I try install it, it ask me to downgrade some mono package. Its Ok or I should upgrade my OS to Leap?

Looks to me that User happenpappen has created packages for both 13.2 and LEAP. You can upgrade to LEAP, but you wouldn’t have to just to install this version of gtk-sharp

Yes, I download it but when I try to install it, it ask me to downgrade lots of mono libs or to uninstall them…

Accept the changes to downgrade if this is what you want to do on this system.
Or, do the following to get a more updated system but may be unstable. The risk is slight but significant so is a personal decision. Some would say that a Dev system is unstable anyway, but others would say that increasing instability to something that is unstable is madness. The more unstable a system is, the more important the User must be technically proficient, and be willing to face problems.

On an openSUSE 13.2 system, there is no Mono repo so if you want later libraries and apps,
To add the openSUSE Factory repo:

zypper in -f http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Mono/openSUSE_Factory/ openSUSE_Factory_Mono

Then,
refresh your repos with

zypper ref

le,
Or
if you already have Mono installed, then update to the newer packages in your new repo (plus more) with

zypper up

openSUSE in general is one of the distros that will integrate upstream upgrades faster than others, so you have <choice> to support more scenarios.

Thanks you for your response but I reinstall OS to Leap and everything works. Lets see how long :stuck_out_tongue:

Once more thanks for your attention and your help :slight_smile:
