I can't seem to install mono-d. It always seems to want a newer 
version of MonoDevelop.

I'm on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and it has version 4.0.12 of MonoDevelop. 
Has anybody else got this to work with this version?

I have this file called

MonoDevelop.D-1.9.6.mpack


Tools->Add In Manager->Install From File
Select the MonoDevelop.D-1.9.6.mpack file.
Press "Open"

Follow the info here: http://wiki.dlang.org/Mono-D Mono-d requires a MonoDevelop > 5.0, which at the moment you have to build yourself on Ubuntu 14.04. You can find a precompiled version of it here: http://simendsjo.me/files/abothe (Which is also linked to in the wiki above) Hope that helps!

MonoDevelop has a terrible plugin API compatibility policy which makes Mono-D author only stick to latest released API version unless he wants to maintain dozen of different Mono-D builds :( In practice that means that you pretty much will never be able to use MonoDevelop version from repositories in Ubuntu - need to either build recent version on your own or use /opt/ bundle by simendsjo

Which is a pity, as it's otherwise a pretty nice IDE. Still, vim with NERDTree + dub on the command line. What more do you need?
