How to test docky?

Asked by The Fiddler

Ok, I've downloaded the code, compiled it and I'm now trying to run it in MonoDevelop. Unfortunately, this yields the following error, which I assume is a configuration issue ("/Docky/ItemProvider" doesn't really look like a valid path...)

Unhandled Exception: System.InvalidOperationException: Extension node not found in path: /Docky/ItemProvider

What can I do to fix this?

I assume you ran './autogen.sh' once before opening/compiling in MonoDevelop? If not, that is your problem.

Yes, but the issue persists.

I've filed a bug report here (and the solution) here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/docky/+bug/492804

Can you help with this problem?
