Description Justin Lecher (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2015-08-18 10:32:16 UTC
What happend to /usr/bin/gmcs?
Comment 1 Cynede (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2015-08-18 11:08:26 UTC
gmcs is deprecated and was removed from Mono 4.0.
Comment 2 Cynede (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2015-08-18 11:09:44 UTC
Also

Starting with Mono version 2.11 a new unified compiler mcs is available. It replaces all previous runtime specific compilers (gmcs, dmcs, smcs). They still exist (as scripts only) to ease the migration path to mcs but we strongly recommend to use mcs.

please don't use gmcs
