Check Mono installation
100%
Description
On the dataminer0-proto machine, I'm trying to run a simple script through Mono, but I get this error:
The assembly mscorlib.dll was not found or could not be loaded.
It should have been installed in the `/usr/lib/mono/2.0/mscorlib.dll' directory.
but Mono 2.0 is not installed on the machine, I guess. Also, the mscorlib.dll is used by many processes.
I attach the executable I'm running. The command to execute it is:
Mono ./text.exe hi
it produces a simple text file named "program.txt".

dataminers have mono 4.0 installed as requirement for another package.
I just installed the mono 2.0 libraries on dataminer0-proto.d4science.org and the result is now:
$ mono ./text.exe Cannot open assembly './text.exe': File does not contain a valid CIL image.
For what I know about, that means that text.exe is an Windows only executable.
$ file text.exe text.exe: PE32+ executable (console) x86-64, for MS Windows

I have compiled them with minGW on a Windows machine, perhaps either this is not supported by Mono or some package is missing. I have found both these explanations around.

minGW is a gcc-derived C/C++ compiler. The result binaries are pure MS Windows executables, while mono is a .Net/C# runtime.
