And there I thought we were done playing with icons
Start basic - check permissions ls -l /home/orion/.local/share/lutris/runtime/winetricks/winetricks
winetricks is a script, so needs to start with rwx: -rwxrwxr-x 1 orion orion
As with all new Lutris installs and you flipping between versions, run an in-place update: /home/orion/.local/share/lutris/runtime/winetricks/winetricks --self-update
Also, did you import your user files from your old PC? You might need to repermission everything.
…and the rest of you posting different issues in here…
EA and Ubisoft connectivity are known issue after they updated (see other posts.) IIRC this currently means you to be running the more up to date Git version of Lutris to use them.
Use of .var/app is flatpak - app user data gets stored there.
Avoid installing both packaged version and a flatpak version - it will just confuse things. Stick to one or the other. Better to have one set of files to be worried about, and one thing to fix.
With Lutris running, to update winetricks inside the flatpak: -
flatpak enter net.lutris.Lutris bash
chmod u+x /home/orion/.local/share/lutris/runtime/winetricks/winetricks
/home/orion/.local/share/lutris/runtime/winetricks/winetricks --self-udpdate
exit
That path doesn’t exist on my system either, and when I search for “wine,” “winetricks,” and “lutris,” I get no hits even though I can find the files manually.
Ugh. This is maddening.
At this point, I’m working in a fresh installation of Linux Mint anyway, so I wonder if I should start from scratch and use only one version of Lutris.
Reinstall won’t make any difference - when lutris did its latest update, the execute flag was not set on winetricks.
~/.var/app/net.lutris.Lutris/data/lutris/runtime/winetricks
this is the path, use the file manager in Mint to navigate here (press control h if you can’t see .var folder in your home folder) then do this:
My mistake on the path, apologies; I wasn’t paying proper attention to the flatpak path (my preference is to avoid sandbox tech)
Edit: Just installed Lutris flatpak direct from flathub and the winetricks it downloads is fine and has the correct permissions, so no idea what happened to yours
