monodevelop does not start, does not open correct file and does not autocomplete

i have installed unity, monodevelop and mono. I am on ubuntu warewolf.

When in preferences external editor is set to monodevelop-builtin, opening a c# script does not work at all. Monodevelop does not start.

When set to external editor with path to monodevelop's executable (/usr/bin/monodevelop), unity opens monodevelop but monodevelop has not opened the c# file that I told unity to open.

After manually loading the C# file in monodevelop, it does not autocomplete at all.

external script arguments is set to "$(File)"

Currently unity on linux is worthless, because it can't even code. Will stick to Godot until this is sorted

 

ok, this sorted it:

But I think this should be classed as a bug and fixed to work out of the box (unity should know the path of it's monodevelop). Also in the release notes monodevelop should be included as a dependency - it should be a dependency for the deb package as well

 

Jan 14 2018 - Monodevelop does not open after Apple update of Serra. Is there a fix for this
