installation of mirage v0.4 with Banshee 1.4

[unknown....@gmail.com]

I've got Banshee version 1.4 on my Linux Mint 5 system, and I'm trying
to install Mirage version 0.4.
I'm really excited about this, and I have it installed insofar as it
appears in the Extensions menu under Edit->Preferences but fails to
show any other indication of its presence.
From the console, when running banshee:

I think this is the important part, but I don't know what it means.
Something missing dependency-wise?

Could you try this command ?
rm -r ~/.config/banshee-1/addin-db-001/

This will delete the banshee extensions cache/repository. It will be
re-generated the next time you start banshee.
I think it sometimes gets confused.

Thanks for the quick reply, but it still fails. New error, though:

Banshee.Mirage.dll could not be loaded:

in the MONO_PATH environment variable, or in the location of the
executing assembly (/usr/lib/banshee-1/Extensions/mirage-0.4.0/
Banshee).

The main mirage files should have been installed by "make install" as
follows :
/usr/lib/libmirageaudio.so
/usr/lib/banshee-1/Extensions/Mirage.dll
/usr/lib/banshee-1/Extensions/Banshee.Mirage.dll

You shouldn't have any subfolder in /usr/lib/banshee-1/Extensions/
What options did you pass to "./configure" ?

[unknown....@gmail.com]

Got it.
If you leave the folder the .tar.gz extracts to inside of /usr/lib/
banshee-1/Extensions (which I did, by accident) it confuses Banshee.
Moved the folder, and all is well. :)
(I used ./configure --prefix=/usr FYI)

Thanks!
