Hi all,
When trying to run OpenRA from the community repository or when
building the package myself (using the community PKGBUILD) I get Mono
exceptions like the one below [1]. At first I thought it could be an
upstream issue but sure enough it builds just fine when using a clean
chroot. As I did not customize the mono package and cannot think of
anything else causing this (configuration?), i hope someone here might
have some ideas. NB, I never used Mono before - it was auto-installed
as a dependency of OpenRA.
Thanks,
Alajos

I had the same issue, seems to be related to the following bug
https://github.com/mono/mono/issues/6752. I downgraded ncurses to 6.0 to
get things going again.
