How to install Mono on a server?

Question

I'd like to be able to build and run C# programs on my Ubuntu 10.10 server. How do I install Mono? "sudo apt-get install mono" doesn't work, says "Package mono is not available, but is referred to by another package".

The mono compiler package is mono-gmcs, if you need the entire mono stack, install the package mono-complete .
