I tried to to install monodevelop on my Parrot OS 4.10 XFCE, according to the instructions given on the website and got the following message: Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The dependencies on Parrot, which actually belongs to Debian testing, is not up to dated so you can't build it. Maybe some older release from here may work with current version of libgtk2 on Parrot https://github.com/mono/monodevelop/releases

I am a computer science student and I couldn't wait for the fix as I have to do practical assignments of my C#.NET classes. So, I installed Rider (from Jetbrains) with 30 days free trial and applied for the Jetbrains Education pack and received 1 year free subscription. But I am still waiting for the monodevelop and Parrot os to fix this issue.
