The problem is as follows: I have a MonoDevelop project (ASP.NET) on my development workstation.

I'm currently at a customer site, without my regular development environment on my laptop (Regulatory Burden). I have SSH access to my development workstation, but the network is too laggy to handle X11 comfortably.

I need to make a minor adjustment and recompile. I tried using xbuild, with no effect:

qdot@trigati ~/svn/proj/trunk/proj $ xbuild proj.csproj
XBuild Engine Version 2.6.4.0
Mono, Version 2.6.4.0
Copyright (C) Marek Sieradzki 2005-2008, Novell 2008-2009.
MSBUILD: error MSBUILD0000: /home/qdot/svn/proj/trunk/proj/proj.csproj: Imported project: 
"/usr/lib/mono/xbuild/Microsoft/VisualStudio/v8.0/WebApplications/Microsoft.WebApplication.targets" does not exist.

Is there some utility that can trigger a rebuild of the monodevelop sourcecode? Obviously the code builds through the GUI.
