=2ENET Core was a pain to package partly because it b= ootstraps from a binary version of =2ENET Core similar to Rust=2E Although= it may be possible to bootstrap via Mono I didn't try it and it's definite= ly not an upstream supported route ;)=2E

Personally I ended up with = just sticking to Mono for my C# needs as I found =2ENET Core didn't integra= te as nicely into the GNU/Linux ecosystem=2E

That being said it woul= d certainly be nice to have packages for it in Guix=2E

 Two que=
stions here=2E

 1) Has anybody already started taking to try and upg=
rade Mono to latest?
 If not, I will give it a go=2E

 2) Have we =
started any packaging on =2ENET Core, would like to know to
 prevent red=
undancy in work=2E

AFAIK nobody worked in this area yet=
, so you=E2=80=99ll probably have the
privilege to be a pioneer!  :-)
Mono was added by janneke (Cc=E2=80=99d), who might have something to =
add?
