Hi,

Trying to modify oine of my games and for some reason the "configure" option no longer works, if I run PoL from a cmd line I get the following errors, I tried updating to the latest version, 4.2.12, but thats made no differemce.

I'm trying to change the wine version that the game uses as Ive started getting lots of screen flickering issues and this was one of the suggested actions.

Running Linux Mint Xenial 4.4.0-97-generic

AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'split'

$ uname -r

Also, the list of programs to install seems to try to load a list but never shows anything.

 

Not sure if this is related but I've gone away from standard language settings to en-GB to get metric units.

AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'split'
 

 Python lists cannot be divided into separate lists based on characters that appear in the values of a list. This is unlike strings which values can be separated into a list. The AttributeError is an exception thrown when an object does not have the attribute you tried to access. The 'list' object has no attribute 'split' and you're trying to call python split function on the whole list of lines, and you can't split a list of strings, only a string. So, you need to split each line, not the whole thing.

To solve the above problem, you need to iterate over the strings in the list to get individual strings; then, you can call the split() function.
