@catalin560
i dont really know whats causing this
check this? https://bugs.python.org/issue40821

[LinuxforPunks]

On Xubuntu 22.04 I have the same error, ending "line 28, in check_config
user_name = os.getlogin()
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
OSError: [Errno 6] No such device or address"

That python.org page concludes with "You have to get the user information by other means. Our documentation for os.getlogin() recommends getpass.getuser()."

@evild4ve jc141 repacks dont have support for ubuntu distros anyway

uhm, yeah they do https://gitlab.com/jc141x/setup#debian-based

[AbdelrhmanNile]

@catalin560
no they dont :)
Including: Debian Sid, Sparky Rolling and Siduction
they actually advice against using ubuntu and its derivatives

[AbdelrhmanNile]

debian is not ubuntu

[catalin560]

debian is not ubuntu

no one said that, Ubuntu is Debian based... I tried their setup scripts on Linux Mint and had no issues
