Found this on another site:
It looks to me like gmcs is the C# compiler. Looking around it seems like starting in C# 4.0, dmcs should be used instead.

fix-compilation.patch

With the attached patch I could compile it on my machine.
It should also work with the old compiler.

[Comment 6 Markus Rathgeb 2015-08-27 13:21:12 UTC]

This applies to (IMHO) the most dev-dotnet packages.
nini, dbus-sharp, ...

[Comment 7 Markus Rathgeb 2015-08-27 13:23:39 UTC]

I am using
ln -s dmcs /usr/bin/gmcs
to get all the necessary packages merged, but this is just a workaround.

[Comment 8 Cynede (RETIRED) 2015-09-03 11:46:51 UTC]

gmcs is deprecated, should use mcs
