wiithon

No translation file found

Asked by TerryG80

After using wiithon flawlessly a few times I took my wii to my uncles and on returning home wiithon won't launch. When running through terminal this gets returned to me:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/games/wiithon", line 114, in <module>
    App()
  File "/usr/games/wiithon", line 48, in App
    util.configurarLenguaje(prefs.APPLICATION_LANGUAGE)
  File "/usr/share/wiithon/util.py", line 519, in configurarLenguaje
    setLanguage(inicial)
  File "/usr/share/wiithon/util.py", line 485, in setLanguage
    lang = gettext.translation(config.APP, languages=[locale])
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/gettext.py", line 484, in translation
    raise IOError(ENOENT, 'No translation file found for domain', domain)
IOError: [Errno 2] No translation file found for domain: 'wiithon'

As far as I know nothing has changed with my setup. Any ideas? I've tried running as su and running the command export LANGUAGE=en;wiithon with no luck.

I think that your translation file (/usr/share/locale/en/LC_MESSAGES/wiithon.mo) has been deleted.
Try to reinstall wiithon deb package.

I'm quite surprised (and proud) to see wiithon is still used after so many years :-)

It had been developed to run on linux with python 2.x and you're using python 3.7 on a Windows system. Better try to use it on a Virtual Machine with a Linux system and an older python version (like 2.7).
