I have been running the PysolFC game since I installed Tumbleweed over a year ago. However recently it has failed to launch.

When executing from the konsole, it generates the following error.

spcwh2@linux-xmhl:~> pysol.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “/usr/bin/pysol.py”, line 29, in <module>
from pysollib.main import main
File “/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pysollib/main.py”, line 31, in <module>
from util import DataLoader
File “/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pysollib/util.py”, line 53, in <module>
from mfxutil import Image
File “/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pysollib/mfxutil.py”, line 44, in <module>
import Image
File “/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/PIL/Image.py”, line 27, in <module>
from . import VERSION, PILLOW_VERSION, _plugins
ValueError: Attempted relative import in non-package

I’ve waited for a week or two before posting this to see if the updates to Tumbleweed would resolve this issue. However it persists.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi
I see the Fedora package has a PIL patch, unfortunately since OBS is maintenance mode can’t branch, patch and test the fix…

As root user manually edit /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pysollib/mfxutil.py and add from PIL to the import lines starting down at line 44;

Thanks Malcom, it is working now.
