How do I install an older version of Mono 5.20 from Mono repo on Centos7?

Mono website suggested this
On RPM distributions, force the package version in your package manager - all older versions are published in the YUM metadata and should be available.
I have no idea how to go about the above?
Thanks in advance.

Install Mono Offline

I'm looking for offline installation package for mono on centOS or Redhat.
I want to run *.exe file on Linux.
All I find is using online repositories but my server is not connected to the internet.
You did not say which version of Mono you are looking for, but you can manually download the most recent "stable" centOS rpm packages from:
http://download.mono-project.com/repo/centos/
i.e. The current mono-core 64bit .rpm is under m/mono-core:
http://download.mono-project.com/repo/centos/m/mono-core/mono-core-4.8.0.495-0.xamarin.1.x86_64.rpm
Once you have all the rpms that you need downloaded and copied to your offline server, you can use yum to install them...

Update dotnet cli in Mac OSX

Im'm trying to upgrade my dotnet cli. I have installed in my Mac (OS El Capitan) from the official link.
But when I try to view the version with this code:
dotnet --version
My output:
1.0.0-preview2-003121
How can I upgrade?
The version 1.0.0-preview2-003121 of the .Net CLI is currently the latest released version. So there is no newer released version to upgrade to.
You could upgrade to the latest build from the dotnet/cli repo, but you probably shouldn't, since that's not a released version.
To update from 2.0.3 to 2.1.4 I simply downloaded the installer from Microsoft's website and then ran the installer.
`https://download.microsoft.com/download/1/1/5/115B762D-2B41-4AF3-9A63-92D9680B9409/dotnet-sdk-2.1.4-osx-gs-x64.pkg
I had a Terminal window open, and when I did a dotnet --version before and after running the installer, the correct version was output to the console. I did not have to restart my terminal window even.
Microsoft has done a good job at packaging the SDK and CLI together. See either their main dotnetcore website or go to their git

Undefined symbol: apr_crypto_init during Apache restart?

I attempted to update my version of SVN from 1.7 to 1.8 as per this guide:
http://snippets.khromov.se/subversion-1-8-centos-6/
All seemed to install fine, however now I have an issue when I try to restart Apache:
/usr/sbin/httpd: symbol lookup error: /usr/sbin/httpd: undefined symbol: apr_crypto_init
Does anyone know how to solve this?
Which packages need to be updated?
I had same issue after installing some perl modules.
I did the following to resolve it:
yum remove vulture-common-3.2-185.1.x86_64
cd /usr/lib
ln -sf libaprutil-1.so.0.2.9 libaprutil-1.so.0
ln -sf libapr-1.so.0.2.9 libapr-1.so.0
apr_crypto_init is new with APR-Util 1.4.x. CentOS 6 should already have APR-Util 1.4.x. So either you're not using CentOS 6 which those instructions are made for or you're not using the apr-util/httpd version that comes with CentOS 6.
If you're not using CentOS 6 then I suggest you go get a version built for your distribution from WANdisco's download site (the script that the site you linked to actually is from WANdisco).
If you're using your own httpd version you'll either have to switch or you'll have to build your own copy of Subversion.
I have had similar experiences with other applications using this library and Centos 6.x. I have tracked most of the problems down to using the 'minimum install' version of the OS. From what I have been able to determine, the minimum or light install versions of Centos have a tendency to have older versions of the binaries. For example, my version of APR-Utils are 1.3x even though I am using version 6.6.
This is supposedly done for better stability and backward compatibility from what I can find but it causes some headaches if you aren't aware. You may need to use a more 'complete' version of the OS in order for this library to be the latest version, provided you are starting from scratch.

How to install recent mono and monodevelop?

I tried to install mono and monodevelop on centOS 6.3.
After many hours I was able to install mono but failed with monodevelop.
I'm really astonished how difficult and time consuming it is, to get a recent mono/monodevelop version on linux installed.
Is there nobody willing to write and maintain an install/compile tutorial to get the most recent mono/monodevelop/monodata/ASP.NET MVC/... version on the major linux distributions (Centos, Ubuntu, Suse, Debian) installed?
I think many people developing on Windows (with limited linux knowledge) would like to start using mono, if the boarding hurdle would be somehow lower.
It may be the most important to make Mono more used and more visible.
Please, write a tested tutorial (script) for compiling mono/monodevelop.
Thank you!
I have created a project on Open Build Service, which produces builds of the latest MonoDevelop 4.0.10 for Debian, Ubuntu, CentOS, and Fedora.
see https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:tpokorra:mono
For installation instructions with apt-get or yum, see:
http://software.opensuse.org/download/package?project=home:tpokorra:mono&package=monodevelop-opt
I hope this will increase the usage of MonoDevelop on Linux Desktop environments.
Monodevelop 4.
If you use any *buntu. Check this.
"You can open up the terminal and install it via the following:
1. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:keks9n/monodevelop-latest
2. sudo apt-get update
3. sudo apt-get install monodevelop-latest"

Xamarin should be doing a better job at publishing the linux packages in a one-click manner. I don't care what linux distro (SuSE, RHEL, CentOS, Ubuntu etc) - just pick any one as the supported one and publish for it. It seemed that it used to be SuSE but even that has old packages as seen within Zypper/YaST.
Update Mono framework
Having said that, to update the Mono framework itself, without letting go of the package managers try this. This will work as long as the project dutifully publishes the RPMs. You don't want to build from source since it's a more fickle process and the setup distracts from your real objective (i.e. develop).
Obviously, please replace the URL below to what will be latest by the time you're reading this.
mkdir mono-rpms
cd mono-rpms
wget --reject "index.html*" -nd -r -e robots=off --no-parent http://download.mono-project.com/archive/3.2.3/linux/x64/
sudo zypper install *rpm
Update MonoDevelop (the IDE)
Timotheus Pokorra's answer indicates he's filling in some of the usability void left by Xamarin (Thanks Timotheus!!). You can install MonoDevelop via
http://software.opensuse.org/download/package?project=home:tpokorra:mono&package=monodevelop-opt
Note that on SuSE I get the error
Problem: nothing provides liberation-mono-fonts needed by mono-libgdiplus-opt-3.0.12-7.1.x86_64
Solution 1: do not install monodevelop-opt-4.0.12-5.2.x86_64
Solution 2: break mono-libgdiplus-opt-3.0.12-7.1.x86_64 by ignoring some of its dependencies
I (very reluctantly) selected to break the dependency. Note that I already had liberation-fonts (via sudo zypper install liberation-fonts). I don't know if its the same/different as liberation-mono-fonts. Anyway, hope Timotheus fixes it when he has a moment.
I'm not sure if you've already seen this, but this may help:

The most common problem that new developers have when coming to Linux from systems like Windows is not properly setting up their environment variables and so when they do the standard ./configure && make && make install routine, when it involves a number of source packages (like Mono does), any package that depends on the core package won't pick up the correct location for that base package.
Your question really doesn't explain what parts you found confusing or difficult so it's hard to address those issues.
For people unfamiliar with setting up Linux systems, it may be easier if you just go with a system like Ubuntu which has fairly recent pre-built packages (although not the latest - I don't think any Linux system keeps up with Mono releases) rather than wrestling with the learning curve of how to build everything yourself.
It is confirmed that in the near future Xamarin will support Linux and provide binaries (mono and mainline applications) for Debian and Centos derivatives, and their are already packages for Debian and Centos derivatives for technical preview. So cheers and no more pain of compiling and even parallel mono installaions.It can not get more easy than this. Check here
