[SOLVED] Lutris not launching after upgrading to Lutris 0.5.8.3-1

Lutris failed to launch after upgrading to Lutris 0.5.8.3-1 on kernel 5.4.92-1-lts.

Calling Lutris from the terminal returned this error:

$ lutris
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/lutris", line 52, in <module>
    from lutris.gui.application import Application  # pylint: disable=no-name-in-module
  File "/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/lutris/gui/application.py", line 41, in <module>
    from lutris.gui.installerwindow import InstallerWindow

  File "/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/lutris/services/gog.py", line 9, in <module>
    from lxml import etree
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'lxml'

I was able to solve this by simply installing the python-lxml package.

sudo pacman -Syu python-lxml

Same for me, thanks for the solution. Hopefully they should make it a dependency in the future
