Any plan to add the ubuntu 20.04 LTS to the download page? #9635

At the download page, there has not been the how-to add the repository explanation for the ubuntu 20.04 Focal yet. But it already seems to exist the repository for ubuntu 20.04 Focal.

Is the repository already available? If so, any plan to add the how-to for the ubuntu 20.04 LTS to the download page?

Came here to report this issue but @tousei-seiso got here first. I tried modifying the commands to point to the focal repositories and they work. Nevertheless the vs-focal repository does not contain the monodevelop package, so I was unable to install it. Are there plans to include it in the near future?

9638 and this one are related.

Please release a version of MonoDevelop for Ubuntu 20.04 Focal Fossa.

The version from the 18.04 bionic repository can be installed on Focal, but the monodevelop-versioncontrol package fails to install because it depends on a version of the libssl1.0.0 library that is not available on Focal.

this makes no sense anylonger to me... I'm using Monodevelop for now only on certain things... I'm developing on Rider. It is slow, need a lot of memory and it is not perfect... but i can work with it.

For UIs maybe Avalon Studio... give it a try

You can follow the GitHub Actions to build a special branch on Ubuntu 20.04,

https://github.com/dotdevelop/dotdevelop/blob/dotdevelop_oe_8.4.3.12_NoGit/.github/workflows/monodevelop.yml

A group of community members is trying to take over the project and let's see what might happen in the coming months.

I am wondering how I can help with MonoDevelop community. Can someone please provide direction/link to "How to get started"?

lextm commented 3 years ago

@tukotech what kind of help do you plan to offer?

If you plan to sponsor the developers, you might open an issue under https://github.com/dotdevelop/community/issues to engage.
If you plan to work on the source code directly, the current community fork has its issue tracker at https://github.com/dotdevelop/dotdevelop/issues

There isn't any "how to get started" guide yet, except the new steps in README, https://github.com/dotdevelop/dotdevelop/blob/dotdevelop/README.md But I assume any intermediate and above .NET developer with some Linux background can quickly identify how to begin. The Gitter channel is also alive though not quite active, https://gitter.im/mono/monodevelop

@lextm I am planning to work on source directly, I will go check dotdevelop then. Thanks for the reply.
