I developed a C# project in Visual Studio Community 2015. I am trying to open the solution in Ubuntu 14 LTS. I am using Mono-Develop 4. Whenever I try to open the solution it displays an error as follows : "Unknown Tools version 14".

@knocte I tried but it says that I have the latest version of mono develop. I also tried to install it from the git but no luck. – Shounak Katyayan Jan 05 '16 at 19:23

`no luck` is not enough information, if you have trouble compiling monodevelop from git, please post the problem in a new stackoverflow question – knocte Jan 06 '16 at 02:03

MonoDevelop probably hasn't gotten around to supporting version 14. Sometimes it takes them a while.
To fix this issue (not a great way in my opinion, but it works), is to vim into your .csproj file, and change ToolsVersion="14.0"
to ToolsVersion="4.0"
This seems really hacky, but it seems to work for me. Then you may hit the Framework'.NETFramework 4.5.2' not installed.
Not sure how to get through this one yet. I'll update if I figure it out.
