Lutris, the popular free and open source game manager for Linux, has a fresh update out now fixing up some issues and adding in a good bunch of new features.
With this app you can manage games on Linux Desktop / Steam Deck from Epic Games, Humble, GOG, Steam, Emulators and much more.
Pictured - Lutris v0.5.18
Here's all the changes:
- Lutris downloads the latest GE-Proton build for Wine if any Wine version is installed.
- Use dark theme by default.
- Display cover-art rather than banners by default.
- Add 'Uncategorized' view to sidebar.
- Preference options that do not work on Wayland will be hidden when on Wayland.
- Game searches can now use fancy tags like 'installed:yes' or 'source:gog', with explanatory tool-tip.
- A new filter button on the search box can build many of these fancy tags for you.
- Runner searches can use 'installed:yes' as well, but no other fancy searches or anything.
- Updated the Flathub and Amazon source to new APIs, restoring integration.
- Itch.io source integration will load a collection named 'Lutris' if present.
- GOG and Itch.io sources can now offer Linux and Windows installers for the same game.
- Added support for the 'foot' terminal.
- Support for DirectX 8 in DXVK v2.4.
- Support for Ayatana Application Indicators.
- Additional options for Ruffle runner.
- Updated download links for the Atari800 and MicroM8 runners.
- No longer re-download cached installation files even when some are missing.
- Lutris log is included in the 'System' tab of the Preferences window.
- Improved error reporting, with the Lutris log included in the error details.
- Add AppArmor profile for Ubuntu versions >= 23.10.
- Add Duckstation runner.

Interesting, I was hoping for an update on UMU support. There's no .deb file for Ubuntu/LM users yet.
I'm still on v0.5.16 myself.

Quoting: CaldathrasInteresting, I was hoping for an update on UMU support. There's no .deb file for Ubuntu/LM users yet.I guess that "AppArmor profile" bit is related to umu. Also they say lutris downloads ge-proton automatically which would only work using umu.

UMU is working in 0.5.17. It just never mentions it.

Quoting: EhvisYea, I knew about that but it was labeled as "experimental" so I thought I'd wait until they considered it "stable" ...Quoting: CaldathrasInteresting, I was hoping for an update on UMU support. There's no .deb file for Ubuntu/LM users yet.

also noticed a new feature with umu that i don't know when it happened but it use to be that using umu in lutris would only use the latest GE Version but now it seems to be able to access all proton versions in the compatibletools.d along with the official steam protons
