            Bug ID: 248862
           Summary: Cannot create any new project in monodevelop
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: amd64
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: ports-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: fbsd at ettinsmoor.net

The following error occurs when trying to create a new project from any
template in MonoDevelop:

"
The project could not be created

The type initializer for
'MonoDevelop.Projects.MSBuild.MSBuildEvaluationContext' threw an exception.
"

Steps to reproduce:

1. Start MonoDevelop.
2. File -> New Solution...
3. Pick anything.  E.g., .NET Console Project (C#)
4. Click 'Next'
5. Type in a project name (e.g., 'foo')
6. Click 'Create'
7. Observe error in popup window.

Unfortunately, this completely prevents me from using MonoDevelop for anything
but an already-existing project.

My configuration:

FreeBSD 12.1-RELEASE-p8 amd64

MonoDevelop 7.6.11

$ mono --version
