Plug In Intial Setup Issues

try to install the mono-devel package

sudo apt-get install mono-devel

you have a SEL, right?
it's a known problem with some of the SEL, but it is supposed to be fixed in more recent versions. When did you buy it?

[Tman]

Yeah I do. Bought it in January...
Any work around?

Unfortunately no. The only solution is to ask HST for a more recent image of the SEL and install it on your device, but it would wipe out all your existing config.

the problem is not the mono version, it's that some mono libraries are not installed.

what do you get when you enter this command:

sudo apt-get install mono-devel

[spud]

here is a possible solution found by another developer for this same issue:

You have to use aptitude instead of apt-get:

1. Install aptitude: sudo apt-get install aptitude
2. Run mono5.sh. I modified the script changing apt-get to aptitude, but apt-get should work. Run it and reboot.
3. Run "aptitude install mono-devel". First, it will come up to the solution of Not installing mono-devel. You have to tell it that you don't accept it. Then it will propose you another solution: "libmono-webbrowser2.0-cil recommends libgluezilla (>= 2.6)". Say Yes.
4. Mono-devel will be installed after another Yes answer

Did this issue get resolved? I have the same problem -- same controller, same error message.



HS3 Standard Edition 3.0.0.435 (Linux)
or
HS3 Standard Edition 3.0.0.449 (Linux)

Mono 5.12.0.226

if you have a SEL, and if you got the following error message when you try to install mono-devel:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
mono-devel : Depends: libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.40.2) but 2.40.0-2 is to be installed

then the only solution right now is to completely update the SEL to install a newer version of Ubuntu, read this thread: https://forums.homeseer.com/showthread.php?t=196323

"sudo apt-get install mono-devel" returns:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
mono-devel : Depends: libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.40.2) but 2.40.0-2 is to be installed
Recommends: mono-csharp-shell but it is not going to be installed
Recommends: referenceassemblies-pcl but it is not going to be installed
Recommends: msbuild but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

The aptitude method described below does not produce the expected prompt (libmono-webbrowswer etc.) and only results in a different error message when Chromecast PI is installed.

This is on a brand new SEL purchased from HomeSeer a couple of weeks ago.
