Hi.  
I managed to install openPDC v2.4 in Linux, however, I was unable to install the latest version 2.8. The POSIX files are not published in [https://www.gridprotectionalliance.org/](https://www.gridprotectionalliance.org/)  
Moreover, I created a new install-openPDC.sh that uses Github versions but it only compiles until v2.4, have you tested newer versions?

Best regards.

Hi @juancamiloyepes,

The Linux version based on Mono is not included as part of our nightly build process, so ever so often after we have added new code, we need to go make sure this compiles on Linux. When you attempt build, what are some of the errors you are seeing? It’s likely we need to “exclude” some new code features/updates using compile-time directives, e.g., `#ifdef Mono`

Thanks,  
Ritchie
