Hi.

The Npgsql contained in mono is crap.

See
https://github.com/mono/mono/blob/master/mcs/class/Npgsql/Npgsql/NpgsqlFactory.cs#L51

The usage of casts in that place should ring all alarm bells... and ofc
they don't work:

System.InvalidCastException
Cannot cast from source type to destination type.
Description: HTTP 500.Error processing request.
Details: Non-web exception. Exception origin (name of application or
object): Npgsql. Exception stack trace:
  at Npgsql.NpgsqlFactory.CreateConnection () [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 

This means that there is no way to run a mono application with generic 
DbProvider
handling with postgres as backend in debian, unless the postgres support is 
hardcoded
(assuming at least that works - didn't test it).
