Will the real actor please stand up? This week I acted because of some nice Fsharp news.
First I visited a presentation of Riccardo Terrell about Akka.NET this week. Sergey Tihon’s weekly newsletter mentioned that Mono 4.0.0 was released.
So let us combine that. I installed Mono before and now to upgrade in Ubuntu (as root):

apt full-upgrade mono-complete
This takes a while. And now to install Akka.NET. There is a little problem though, you need to get Akka.NET via nuget, and standard there is no nuget on your Ubuntu installation.
So what now?
You can follow these instructions, but it is much easier.
Download the command-line utility. Make sure that nuget.exe goes to your Ubuntu installation. In my case, I downloaded it to a Windows host and copied it to my Ubuntu Virtual Machine via a Samba shared drive.
Copy nuget.exe to /usr/bin/nuget (or if you like it, you can keep the .exe extension)
Now create and go to a folder where you want to start your Akka.NET project. Run the following command to download the correct certificates:

mozroots --import --sync
And now you can install Akka.NET via nuget. Make sure that nuget has execution rights on you Ubuntu system. From your Akka project folder:
nuget install Akka
nuget install Akka.Fsharp
nuget install Akka.Fsharp
Okay, ready to go!
