Package: mono-common
Version: 1.9.1+dfsg-3
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 9.1.1
violates the FHS because it does not respect symbolic links in / in
its path correctly.
Scenario:
Debian setup with two partitions: "/" and "/localvol".
"/usr", "/lib" and "/var" are symbolic links to the according directory on
"/localvol".
"/etc" resides on the root partition and is NOT a symbolic link.
This setup is explicitelz allowed by the FHS ("The following directories,
or symbolic links to directories, are required in /.")!
In this scenario mono looks for its config in "/localvol/usr/etc/mono/config"
instead of "/etc/mono/config". Which results in an error like this when
starting a mono application:
"MONO_LOG_MASK="dll" mono /usr/lib/gnome-do/Do.exe
Unhandled Exception: System.DllNotFoundException: intl
at (wrapper managed-to-native) Mono.Unix.Catalog:bindtextdomain
(intptr,intptr)

[0x00000]

Unhandled Exception: System.DllNotFoundException: msvcrt

at Mono.Unix.Catalog.Init (System.String package, System.String localedir)
[0x00000]
at Do.Do.Main (System.String[] args) [0x00000]"
The strace reveils that mono is indeed looking for the config in the wrong
directory
(open("/localvol/usr/etc/mono/config", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory),
line 80 of the full strace below)
When a symbolic link from "/localvol/usr/etc" to "/etc" is set, mono works.
