I don't really know how to do this in monodevelop. What you want is
the equivalent of "make install" for mono programs.

See if there exist some sort of makefile integration for monodevelop
projects..  I've been meaning to write something like this, but
haven't had time. As a small teaser I can mention that I'm actually
developing a tool (similar to mkapspec, but less "wizardy") for
autopackage using c# which I intend to use as a pilot for making sure
autopackage can work good for mono apps.

You should add "wasp" to this: Path.Combine(BinReloc.DataDir, "wasp/help.txt");

Take a look at your own /usr/share/ directory and see what other programs do.
