[mono-android] 4.0 Upgrade Issues MonoDevelop 2.8.4.1 / MacOS X Snow Leopard

[Andreia Gaita]

Hi,

Even though 2.8.4.2 fixes the issue, there might be another problem
with your package, since Fast Deployment should never be active in
release mode (and therefore you should never have hit that issue).

Look inside (unzip) your release package and make sure all assemblies
are included in it. If they're missing, open your .csproj file in an
editor and check if anywhere there's a project property named
EmbedAssembliesIntoApk (Normally this key should only be present in
the debug configuration, and only if you changed the Fast Deployment
option manually on the IDE)

Let me know what you find
