Depend on mono-runtime instead of mono-complete #16

Closed theHilikus closed 2 years ago

theHilikus commented 2 years ago

For linux users, pulling all of mono-complete just to run a single keepass plugin seems excessive. Would it be very hard to use only what's available in mono-runtime? What parts exactly need mono development tools?

ligos commented 2 years ago

My recommendation for mono-complete is based on experience from ~10 years ago. And a lot has changed since then. I'm unsure exactly what parts of plugin / KeePass need development tools - however I do know KeePass compiles plugins on each new version (of KeePass), which may be part of the reason.

I agree it is excessive, but was aiming for "make it work" rather than "make it perfect". If you have some time to dissect mono-complete and experiment with which individual packages are required, I'm happy to update the wiki with a specific list.

ok, i see. it makes perfect sense

I don't really know much about mono, sorry. i was just inquiring if you knew how much effort it would be in case it could be a quick win for me to try.

thank you
