+ Is anyone else having trouble getting lutris to launch in\r
+ ubuntu after its latest update (earlier this week)?\r
+ \r
+ Attempts to launch it in the terminal give me a cryptic error\r
+ (to me, very much a non developer) about a problem on line 25.\r
+ \r
+ A stab in the dark, but I'm thinking I either wait until\r
+ someone else sees the problem and fixes it or try to find a\r
+ way to install an earlier version. Any other suggestions? I\r
+ don't want to have to break down and *clutches pearles* boot\r
+ Windows to play my game.\r

+ What if you download the tarball and try running lutris from the\r
+ extracted folder?\r

+ Joy! I wound up going to openSUSE's build service and\r
+ downloading the .deb for lutris for my version of ubuntu.\r
+ It's a slightly older version, but it runs my game now. I'm\r
+ thinking the repo got borked up somehow and when I did my\r
+ update that screwed something up.\r

+ Yes , somewhat similar problems occured for me.\r

+ [1]I found this thread that mentions upgrading from Python\r
+ 3.6 to Python 3.7 potentially breaking Lutris, as it\r
+ installs some things into the versioned python directory\r
+ in /usr/lib, which would likely be the "missing" modules.\r
+ I know you've already fixed the situation on your machine,\r
+ but I figured maybe the information would be useful if\r
+ someone else runs into the same error.\r
