Here’s the submit issue output.

Never been able to launch Lutris, whether through the command line or through the graphical application. Tried reinstalling twice. Running ParrotOS4.10, KDE Plasma 5. Every time I try to launch through the command line, I get this:

Thanks in advance for the help!

Any particular reason you’re stuck on 5.1.x? It’s a pretty old version.

3

It’s just what installed when I installed lutris (following the instructions for debian installs provided at https://lutris.net/downloads/).

4

It’s also what I get from doing apt install lutris, so the method of install doesn’t seem to change it

5

I’m using the same Debian 10 repo and it’s definitely on 5.7.1. You might be getting an old version from elsewhere.
apt search is your friend; That, and grep -li Lutris /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.list
:slight_smile:

lutris.list has this as its one line:
deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/strycore/Debian_10/ ./

And yet apt search lutris yields
lutris/rolling 0.5.1.3 amd64

The link is clearly to 5.7.1. I’m relatively new to GNU Linux in general; how should I fix this? Thanks again for all your help.
