Getting F# on Ubuntu 10.04

Question

I followed this to get F# on my Ubuntu machine. However, it returned me an error, saying

-- Resigning FSharp.Core.dll with mono.snk ./install-mono.sh: 24: sn: not found -- Installing FSharp DLLS into the GAC Failure adding assembly bin/FSharp.Core.dll to the cache: Strong name cannot be verified for delay-signed assembly

Answer 1

The sn utility is in the package mono-devel. So sudo apt-get install mono-devel and try again.

By the way: if you type sn into bash it will tell you which package you need to install to get sn. So the next time, you get a "command not found" error just try to type the command name into bash.
