Details

monodevelop.desktop seems to install to /opt/mono/share/applications, which is not exported to $XDG_DATA_DIRS by default, and does not appear in the GNOME Applications menu.

The .desktop file (and accompanying /pixmaps, etc) should either be moved (to /opt/gnome/... ?), or the mono package should be modified to add /opt/mono/share to $XDG_DATA_DIRS.
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Fixed
Additional comments about closing:  added to mono.sh - renamed file to mono.profile.d
The monodoc issue is solved by introducing mono-tools to the repo since the browser became part of this package without any official information, grmpf

Adding:
if [ ! -z $XDG_DATA_DIRS ]; then
export XDG_DATA_DIRS=$XDG_DATA_DIRS:/opt/mono/share
else
export XDG_DATA_DIRS=/opt/mono/share
fi

to /etc/profile.d/mono.sh will fix this, but I am unsure if this is the most correct way (monodoc seems to use ./configure --datadir=/opt/gnome/share, but monodoc.desktop is not present on my system at all!)

The adding of XDG Data to mono.sh is the way cleaner version, and I expect mor application to come installing it's files to /opt/mono/share. I added this to mono.sh on cvs and will rebuilt it soon. I also check if we can reactivate monodoc's .desktop file. Since I can remeber that it was there b4.
