Unable to open “Lutris” on ubuntu[18.10] for gaming

I wanted to play windows games on Ubuntu. And I found that we can use Lutris along with wine for managing games. I installed the application as given in official webpage: Lutris Download Page



But after installation, the program is not opening.
So what I can I do to open?
Any other suggestion on gaming on Ubuntu is also welcome.



Running through terminal gives the following result:



madhurachanna@madhurachanna-Inspiron-5559:~$ lutris
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/lutris", line 29, in <module>
locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, locale_name)
File "/usr/lib/python3.6/locale.py", line 598, in setlocale
return _setlocale(category, locale)
locale.Error: unsupported locale setting

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/lutris", line 31, in <module>
sys.stderr.write("Unsupported locale %s. Try running with LC_ALL=C.n" % locale_name)
TypeError: not all arguments converted during string formatting

  • You can also install PlayOnLinux, it have database for games and can use number of wine versions known to work fine with a game.
