I fixed the problem on Fedora 23 by installing libgdiplus-devel as follows:

dnf install libgdiplus-devel

As @knocte pointed out, you should

  • Install Mono via apt-get such as sudo apt-get install mono-complete, so that libgdiplus is installed as well,
  • Or compile both libgdiplus and Mono from source code.

raffamaiden's answer worked for me, but there's a small spelling mistake in the answer:

dnf install libgdiplus-devel
