MonoMac Build Error From Default Template

Question

I am trying to use MonoDevelop 3.0.3.2 to create a MonoMac application. I created a new MonoMac solution and tried running the template created after creating the solution, but this is my build output:

Building Solution: MAC1 (Debug|x86)

Build successful.
Build failed. The given key was not present in the dictionary.

I am running Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.8), and my Xcode version is 3.2.2.

It will not allow me to compile even the default MonoMac template, so I know I must have something configured incorrectly. I appreciate the help.

It looks like your version of Xcode is old - it's likely that MonoDevelop's support for reading values from the older Apple SDKs' plists has regressed. I would suggest you either upgrade Xcode, or file a bug with the MonoDevelop log file (found in ~/Library/Logs/MonoDevelop-3.0) attached.
