MonoDevelop project build fails with 'The type or namespace 'GDK' could not be found

Question

'...are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?'

I am running on Mtn Lion with lastest MonoFramework 2.10.10 and MonoDevelop 3.1.1

Any suggestions to get build going? Thanks.

Hamlet you have changed Gdk to Gtk but the build error mentions Gdk. — Ants, Jan 21 '13 at 22:36
Because you try to solve problem using link from post which relates to Gdk#. That's different thinks. — Hamlet Hakobyan, Jan 21 '13 at 22:51

But this is an existing project that I've just picked up. – Ants Jan 21 '13 at 22:35
"I've just picked up" - mean it you copied project to another computer? – Hamlet Hakobyan Jan 21 '13 at 22:36
I've just pulled the project from a git repo. – Ants Jan 21 '13 at 22:37
In your solution explorer have you see valid reference to Gtk# dlls? – Hamlet Hakobyan Jan 21 '13 at 22:41
that's it yes it's referencing dlls under a directory "../Program Files/.." somewhere. I have deleted these and added them back in edit references. Compiles now. Thanks. – Ants Jan 21 '13 at 22:45
