so, i don't understood how to fix setup

I have seen this reported on StackOverflow a couple of times but I have never worked out what the underlying problem is.

NuGet unzips the NuGet packages to a temporary directory so it does not have to hold the entire .zip file in memory.

Whilst the StackOverflow answer suggests removing monodevelop fixes the problem I have no idea how this fixes it. I do not see how this would solve anything.

I encountered this issue because another user had run nuget restore recently (me on another account, incidentally), and the /tmp/nuget dir was owned by that user, blocking the new user from creating or accessing it. Removing the tmp dir resolved the issue for me.
