Anyone get Lutris working?

I want to try the new linux game management program Lutris (https://lutris.net/) but couldn't get it installed.

I was wondering if anyone was able to get it working in Devuan.

Re: Anyone get Lutris working?

I know nothing about Lutris (sounds like a good thing though!).

I didn't add the ppa; I downloaded the .deb package from the link provided on the Lutris website. Installed it with the GDebi Package Installer, and it opened right up.

I have no games to try it out with though.

I will try that, thanks. I have never used GDebi Package installer before.

Edit: that worked like a charm! Got Lutris for Debian 8 .deb package running with GDebi and tested Quake 1. Excellent.

I must pass on Lutris since it is tied too closely with Steam - you will soon need a Steam account. And... Steam dropped support for us still using 32 bit.
