There
are
at

11
other
mono
packages
(some
of
which
may
not
be<br>>
installed),
not
to
mention
any
programs
that
use
mono.
mono-common<br>>
contains
some
core
stuff
and
removing
it
will
stop
mono
apps
from<br>>
running[...]<br><br>Normally
packages
that
require
a
language
runtime
will
get
removed<br>implicitly
if
you
ask
the
package
tools
to
remove
that
runtime.
In<br>this
case,
I
notice
that
the
Mono
runtime
appears
to
be
in
package<br>"mono-runtime",
_not_
"mono-common"
(at
least,
on
*buntu).
The<br>"mono-common"
package
is
described
as
providing
base
configuration
files<br>for
Mono,
plus
shell
support
for
running
Mono
executables
from
the<br>command
line.<br><br>Here
are

a
typical
Mono-app
