Details

Description:
If the PATH variable contains /usr/sbin before /usr/bin, the /usr/bin/monodevelop script is called as /usr/sbin/monodevelop, because /usr/sbin is a symlink to /usr/bin. The Script uses it's path to evaluate the PREFIX in the line:

EXE_PATH="${0%%/bin/monodevelop}/lib/monodevelop/bin/MonoDevelop.exe"

This does not work if $0 is /usr/sbin/monodevelop

Additional info:
* package version: 4.0.13-1

Steps to reproduce:
export PATH=/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
monodevelop
