[Mono-osx] Unable to Open MonoDevelop Please Help

[Sandy Armstrong]

How long ago did you download MonoDevelop.app from the Mono website?  I
was pretty sure this got fixed, but then again, this bug is still open:

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=439041

Try downloading again to make sure you have the latest.  If that doesn't
work, you may need to modify the last line of this file:

/Applications/MonoDevelop.app/Contents/MacOS/monodevelop

>From this...

exec -a monodevelop $MONO $ASSEMBLY "$@"

...To this...

OSX_VERSION=$(uname -r | cut -f1 -d.)

if [ $OSX_VERSION -lt 9 ]; then
        $MONO $ASSEMBLY "$@"
else
        exec -a monodevelop $MONO $ASSEMBLY "$@"
fi
