Been using sudo pip?

Notice this has nothing to do with lutris, it lists the package that's a problem.

Scimmia has already, but more help can only come if you provide the answer to the question he explicitly asked you as well as the ones implicitly asked by giving the link to the relevant section of the wiki: that section of the wiki tells you which commands to run to gather more information.

Sorry! i have been using pip and this is the output when i try the one of many files.

pacman -Qo /usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/PIL/_webp.cpython-310-x86_64-linux-gnu.so
error: No package owns /usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/PIL/_webp.cpython-310-x86_64-linux-gnu.so

Thanks. Based on that output it could be safe to use the overwrite flag, however it'd likely be easier just to remove any pip packages that you've installed system-wide and be sure to never use pip in that way again (using pip with it's --user flag, or whatever it is, is fine, though I've never really understood the purpose of that either).

This worked, thank you!
