Comment 1 Peter Gordon 2007-09-03 21:05:19 UTC
Installing the mono-web package should take care of the System.Web dependencies.
Please let me know if this resolves the issue for you, and if so I'll add that
as a hardcoded dependency to the package in the Repo. Thanks.

Comment 2 Michael De La Rue 2007-09-05 15:46:14 UTC
Sure enough; it fixes the problem.  Thanks.  

Comment 3 Peter Gordon 2007-09-08 19:13:27 UTC
Good to hear, thanks. I'll update CVS shortly with the change, and a new package
should hit the build system in the next day or two with this fix.

Thanks for your bug report!
