pysolfc - mint21

[howiebinnz]

Not sure if this should be here or gaming...
Just completed an upgrade to mint21 and all seemed to go smoothly.
I only us laptop for email and web browsing. Went to play the only game I have installed while waiting for mail "Pysolfc" and no go. Tried to start from command line with following output:

Code: Select all

$ pysolfc

Any help to resolve would be much appreciated....probably by quite a few.

Try

Code: Select all

pip install formatter

I'm having the same problem. I tried the suggestion above (pip3 install formatter), but I get the following error message:

note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
