Manual build from source
As of August 2019, additionally to mono you also need MSBuild: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/msbuild-stable/.
It is needed to work around a bug in NuGet, that keeps it from detecting XBuild, mono-projects own implementation of MSBuild.
It is fixed in NuGet 5.3.0, which is not released yet. You can take a look at their download page to check the current status. If it is already released and we didn't notice yet, we would be very happy if you give a us a quick ping!
