Error: /usr/share/games/renpy/lib/linux-i686/pythonw does not exist

#1 Post by marionline »

I'm on linux mint, trying to export my unfinished game.
This Error showed up : /usr/share/games/renpy/lib/linux-i686/pythonw does not exist.
What can I do about this?

Full Error:

Code: Select all

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
  File "launcher/game/distribute.rpy", line 1484, in script
    python hide:

    open_directory=True,
  File "launcher/game/distribute.rpy", line 521, in __init__
    self.add_python()
  File "launcher/game/distribute.rpy", line 878, in add_python
    True)
  File "launcher/game/distribute.rpy", line 695, in add_file
    raise Exception("{} does not exist.".format(path))
