[Banshee-List] Banshee won't start on Ubuntu 14.04

[Jeff Van Epps <jve24 lordbah com>]

I upgraded to Ubuntu 14.04 a couple of months ago. This is the first
time I've tried to launch Banshee since then. It dies immediately.

* Assertion at domain.c:1553, condition `mono_defaults.asyncresult_class
!= 0' not met


Native stacktrace:

Got a SIGABRT while executing native code. This usually indicates
a fatal error in the mono runtime or one of the native libraries
used by your application.


tomboy, which also uses mono, crashes the same way, so this is sure to
be a mono issue. I guess I'm just hoping one of you guys has seen the
problem and knows the answer, before I face the mono crowd.
