I have all the required dependencies installed, but openra does not execute...

This looks like a mono error. What version of mono are you running? Can you paste the output of `mono --version'?

Output of mono --version :

OpenRA was running with this version of mono, but it started giving this problem "of nothing". I believe that the openra has a conflict with another package.

My openra version: 20110320

Try the latest version of openra. I execute openra on mono-2.10.1-r2 without any problems in Gentoo Linux.

Hi,

then, I reinstalled the mono and openra package. OpenRA is running now. :-)

Thanks!
