Update to mono 4.4.0.182, new major release v4.4.
Fix possible bug with incorrect $mono_libdir substitution for libMonoPosixHelper.so, see my explanation below:
It seems that recent changes in mono-config.c and config.in (6b5f6dd043) is not entirely correct for situations when mono installed in different location than native libraries for current system arch.
Fox example, on x86_64 builds, dllmap_start function in mono-config.c, somehow, expands $mono_libdir in config file to /usr/lib. I think, that line 283 in mono-config.c do this job: const char *libdir = mono_assembly_getrootdir ();
So, when native library installed in libdir (/usr/lib64) that differs from mono install dir (/usr/lib), $mono_libdir expands to incorrect location (/usr/lib). I think, this leads us to this error for libMonoPosixHelper library (for example, when starting monodevelop) : http://pastebin.com/gRDkgR4V .
For now, i rollback changes only in config.in files for libMonoPosixHelper.so native library, so search path will be hardcoded in config file as in previous mono 4.2 build. I think we should inbestigate this problem further (test mono-core package from official mono repo?) and maybe fill a bug report to upstream. Or, maybe, something gone wrong only with my build - i'm doing something wrong or do not understand yet... Whatever it is, this temporary patch for config.in file should not brake anything.
