I'm need to create a distributable for a mono application I'm building. I've figured it out for debian, but I also need to support redhat and CentOS.
The same way as any other software. See this list of resources: https://fedorahosted.org/copr/wiki/UserDocs#HowcanIpackagesoftwareasRPM

For a particular script, I need to download the package mono-4.6.1.5 for Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.
However, I can not do it from the official mono web site.
Anyone knows where I could get the .tar.gz package since the one I have is corrupted?
Thank you in advance.
Best regards.
It is always recommended to run latest maintained and compatible version of packages complying with the operating system, excluding specific cases such as experimental purposes and etc.
But if you still need this specified version, you can find the "tar.bz2" format file on this page. There are certain ways to install a tar.bz2 file on Ubuntu, but if you need the tar.gz file, you can convert it by a similar way explained here.
P.S: I'm aware that this package is from a Fedora repo, but I have successfully tried and installed Fedora packages on my Ubuntu 18.04 before. I assume this might also work for you.
Ho, btw, I found another link in my archives: mono project
Running Fedora, I installed MonoDevelop via flatpak as detailed on their website. I now found out that MD was running with Mono 5.4.1. According to flatpak update, no updates are available for MD. Since I noticed some errors while building projects, I updated Mono to the latest version 5.10 by installing the project's reposity as explained on Mono's website.
As expected, mono --version now outputs Mono JIT compiler version 5.10.1.20.
However, Mono Develop is still using Mono 5.4 according to the "About" page. I wanted to change the runtime by hand (maybe flatpak packs its own runtime, I thought), but trying to add the current mono runtime via Edit -> Preferences... -> Projects -> .NET Runtimes in MD fails, as no mono can be found in /usr/bin, though that's exactly where which mono describes it installed.
So now I have two questions:
How can I make MonoDevelop use the new Mono version?
Where is this Mono 5.4 located MD claims to be using?
MonoDevelop flatpak deployment has some issues that are not easy to fix, which require manpower that it seems the team doesn't have at the moment. That's why they have switched, in the meantime, to old-school packaging and you can install MonoDevelop again via DEB/RPM instead of flatpak.
Grab the packages from here: https://www.monodevelop.com/download/#fndtn-download-lin-centos
Cannot find any information if Jaeger can be executed without docker?
Does a standalone jar exist, or will there be a release in the future for Jaeger like Zipkin has ?
The Downloads page (https://www.jaegertracing.io/download/) lists both the Docker images and the raw binaries built for various platforms (Linux, macOS, windows). You can also build binaries from source.
Just to add to Yuris answer, you can also download the source from github - Github - Jaeger This is useful for diagnosing issues, or just getting a better understanding of how it all works.
I have run both the released apps and custom versions on both windows and linux servers without issues. For windows I would recommend running as a service using Nssm. Nssm details
I'm trying to build an embedded simple web browser for an embedded device and I've decided to use WebKit / WebKitGTK+. However, our device uses a Linux environment somewhat based on CentOS 5.8. I haven't been able to find any RPMS or mention of support for WebKit / WebKitGTK+ for CentOS 5.8 while doing several web searches.
Does anybody know if it's possible to build an older version of WebKitGTK+ such as 1.2.6-2.el6_0 which works well on CentOS 6.3? Are any RPMS available for CentOS 5.8?
The goal here is to be able to run a relatively current, at least 1.2.6 version of WebKitGTk on CentOS 5.8
Note: I was able to sort everything out. Just took a long time compiling all of the dependencies in the correct order with the correct options. I was able to get WebKitGTK 1.6.0 running on Centos 5.8.
You shouldn't have any problems building an old version of webkit if you can install the older versions of libraries that it requires.
If you have older or newer versions of GTK+ etc installed than the old version of webkit requires it may need quite a bit of porting to compile.
I'm not aware of any RPMs that meet your requirements
Depending on the compilation options you should be able to compile the dependencies in an isolated directory. With each library you typically use the --prefix option to specify the destination. Then when compiling something that depends on that library, you typically have an option to specify where to look for that library - something like --with-libraryname=/path/to/library. You want to check ./configure --help of each thing you're compiling to get the correct options.
It'll be quite a bit of work, but you should be able to compile everything you need into an isolated directory without replacing anything on the system. I would highly recommend you avoid doing this in root to ensure you have the right options.
Here is my situation. I am on a Mac using Brew as my package manager. I had mono installed on my machine and I was doing all sorts of development in C#. I was doing web development, gui development, ect. When I tried to update my machine using Brew, I got an error. Uninstalling Mono solved the issue.
So, what I did is I toyed around and I created a 2nd user on my machine. Now, this user doesn't need anything to work. I just need Mono and Mono Develop to work on this user without installing anything globally. Everything needs to be installed locally.
So to be specific, I am the only on who uses my machine. My /Users directory looks like this.
/Users/dillon
/Users/dummy
So if I could install mono, in let's say:
/Users/dummy/.mono
Then in my .profile:
export MONO_PATH=/Users/dummy/.mono
Obviously this isn't a perfect world but I was wondering if anyone is an expert on this subject?
(Also, I use this dummy user for other stuff, I use it for Wine and I have a collection of software from school on this user.)
You need to build Mono from source to install it into a custom location (in which case you can install it anywhere you like).
You can install MonoDevelop.app anywhere, but getting it to use your custom Mono is a bit trickier. You might be able to make it work by mucking around with the relevant environment variables though.
How to install Mono in a custom location and the relevant environment variables is all covered here: http://mono-project.com/Parallel_Mono_Environments
