Lutris not launching

Issues & Assistance Unsupported Software (AUR & Other)
#1

I don't have optimus-manager-gitor any of its derivatives installed, unlike the recent solution presented in 1727. But I have the same problem, terminal output when running lutris:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/lutris", line 52, in <module>
from lutris.gui.application import Application  # pylint: disable=no-name-in-module
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'lutris'

Tried re-installing, and installing lutris-git and building from AUR. No luck.

When using lutris, I get this error:

Fatal Python error: init_sys_streams: can't initialize sys standard streams
Python runtime state: core initialized
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3.10/io.py", line 54, in <module>
ImportError: cannot import name 'text_encoding' from 'io' (unknown location)

Did you apply the garuda-update for the python fix as per the announcement the other day?

#6

Yes, I ran update , and checked for rebuilds.

#7

Ok. I asked only because I saw the last version in the Arch repo was updated for python and in the aur the last comment says to simply rebuild.
Let's wait for gamers (I'm not one); :wink:

Just in case...
Did you reboot?

Odd that, Lutris runs fine for me. I am using the 'community' version, not the chaotic-aur, btw.

Have you done a 'garuda-update' in terminal?

yes, I believe that it is the same as update. I ran it for certainties sake, nothing changed.

Note that Lutris community gets me into the GUI, but I can't use Python:

Fatal Python error: init_sys_streams: can't initialize sys standard streams
Python runtime state: core initialized
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3.10/io.py", line 54, in <module>
ImportError: cannot import name 'text_encoding' from 'io' (unknown location)

The error is very strange considering:

Lutris not launching, probably user error
#10

OK this is crazy, the troubleshooting got me thinking, why not run Lutris after pyenv shell system. It works!

The bottom line is that pyenv and Lutris seem to not play well with each other when pyenv shell is not system. Make sure to try out pyenv shell system, if you use this combination before proceeding to deeper troubleshooting :slight_smile:
