Could not find msbuild when compiling fsharp
Before trying to compile the latest fsharp code, I compiled and installed mono-5.0.1 on a RedHat Enterprise 7 distribution running on Linux on Z.
mono --version
Mono JIT compiler version 5.0.1.1 (2017-02/5077205 Fri Jul 28 08:35:19 EDT 2017)

I installed mono in / usr / local. Before trying to run autogen.sh, I previously exported the following envars:
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/mono/lib/pkgconfig/
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib
export PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig
When I try to run autogen.sh I get the following errors:
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr/local
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
checking for pkg-config... /bin/pkg-config
configure: "pkg-config: /bin/pkg-config"
configure: "PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR: /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig"
checking for msbuild... no
configure: error: Could not find msbuild
I have checked the extraction of the mono-5.0.1 tar file I have and I don't see a link to msbuild. Is there a way to overcome the lack of msbuild in mono so that I can build fsharp and work? I got the later version of mono, so it should be there. Any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated.
I tried following the suggestion to get the mono branch with msbuild included in it and I got the following errors:
# ./cibuild.sh --target Mono

As suggested in the comments, I tried using the Mono-5.2 builds that are currently present at https://github.com/mono/mono/releases and they all fail with the following error:
