Monodevelop will not start in Mint 17

I am trying to install MonoDevelop in Linux Mint 17. I have installed both using apt and throught he package manager, but I'm getting the same result. MonoDevelop simply will not start. I try to run it from the command line and I get no output and no splash screen. Just nothing happens.

Any ideas how to fix this?

Turns out I was missing dependencies. I installed mono-complete and gtk-sharp3 and it works now

For those not covered by the accepted answer (e.g. because there is no mono-complete anymore), here is the latest fix:

sudo apt-get install libmono-cairo2.0-cil
