Compile issue with FStar and mono

Question

I'm trying to compile FStar language on latest Ubuntu and mono. GitHub repo provides some build instruction, but it doesn't work for me. After

sudo apt-get install mono-complete fsharp
mozroots --import --sync
source setenv.sh 
make -C src

I'm get this error message:

make: *** No rule to make target `../bin/jsbackend.dll', needed by `../bin/fstar.exe'.  Stop.
make: Leaving directory `/home/alex/FStar/src'

Full log available here.

How can I build FStar language on mono?

Answer 1

Someone created a bug report and it now builds on Ubuntu out of the box.

Even though it's not mentioned in the INSTALL instructions, it is also necessary to set up Z3 from http://z3.codeplex.com/releases/view/101911.
