Hi Mark,

David Naylor was putting together patches to incrementally get us up to a
better version of Mono and I was helping to test his patches. I've moved
away from .Net (professionally and personally) and dropped the ball. Davids
work can be found here for reference:

I wish I could promise to look at this but I'm just too far away from mono
to be much help (other than a really terse build test).

CFT: lang/mono 5.10.2

2018-06-13 Thread Mark Felder
Hi all,

It's time to get us on a modern stable mono version. I've had nothing but 
issues with mono 5.2 and it seems I'm not alone. I have a port update ready for 
testing here:

https://reviews.freebsd.org/D15780

Initially I intended to bring us to the very latest release, mono 5.12, but 
that seems to have compatibility issues. I run some ports that just don't work 
with it, so per suggestion I am tracking the  "really stable" release which is 
what Mono ships with MS Visual Studio on Linux.

Please let me know if you have any feedback. I'm hoping to get this committed 
before the 2018Q3 tree gets cut.
