I asked because I've subscribed RHEL6 and I want banshee... If someone
had it available, I would gladly use it... Since it seems no one has
it, I'll build it myself, regardless of RedHat wanting to ship or not
mono. I'm pretty sure Red Hat isn't going to tell me what I can and
what i can't run...

I didn't meant to be rude to gnomeuser, I hope him he didn't took it that way.

I doubt there will be more support on Mono, but yeah, I'll work it out
during the cold winter nights by the fireplace enjoying a nice port,
listening to the wood cracking :) I'll follow the EPEL/Fedora package
guidelines and I have already setup a repository in OBS for it. My
plans are just to package the dependencies for Banshee, and most
likely will change the %_prefix to /opt so it doesn't conflict with
other Mono stuff that might be around :)
