Compile mono in archlinux for a different distro
Hi guys,
I know the subject it's a little bit weird but let me explain. I've a little VPS with a debian. I have to compile mono from sources, because mono in debian stable is too old for my pourpose. The VPS has a very low memory and it failed to compile from sources every time because during compilation mcs ( mono compiler ) uses too much memory and I didn't figure out how limit memory consumption ( with gcc it's pretty simple ) . Now there is the question : Can I compile mono in my archlinux and then copy all the building directory in my VPS and run "make install" ? I think that there isn't any problem with hardware ( I've a 64 bit architecture for VPS and for mine ). If it's impossible, has someone a solution ? Thanks for any reply and sorry for my engliss.
Kind regards,
Campo.

Re: Compile mono in archlinux for a different distro
It would probably be easier to set up apt-pinning on your Debian box and install mono from testing if that version is OK for you.
