Hi everyone
All was going well with some games running and lutris being fine, but after manually adding a game and then a strange system crash, I am no longer able to launch lutris.
Here is what I get when running from command line (-d produces the same output):
xxxusr@X-Laptop:~/lutris/bin$ lutris
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/lutris", line 29, in <module>

(result, consumed) = self._buffer_decode(data, self.errors, final)
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xf3 in position 1: invalid continuation byte
Running Ubuntu (Gnome) 17.04, have tried:
apt-get remove lutris
apt-get purge lutris
apt-get remove python3 (this may have been a mistake!!!, did reinstall after)
and then multiple reinstalls of lutris.
pgrep doesn’t show lutris as running in the background or anything.
Any help much appreciated!
