Well, if not Mono, then the .NET Core runtime package, right? It's not self-contained. I read this [1], but it's unclear to me how I build a self-contained binary, or what options are available for AOT.

If you build with 'msbuild publish -r debian8.x64' or any of the other valid 'runtime identifiers', the output of the build is an xcooy-deployable folder that contains your binary and all it's dependencies including the runtime. I use this at work to make Debian packages that are standalone.

The command you are thinking of is probably `dotnet publish -r debian.8-x64`
