  32. If you think this is a bug in the install script
  33. please report the complete output at
  34.   https://arx.vg/bug

The setup files are: setup_arx_fatalis_1.22_(38577).exe setup_arx_fatalis_1.22_(38577)-1.bin both are located on an internal SSD (mounted to /home/<user>/games) and downloaded from GOG. If I had to guess it has something to do with the versions of the setup files being 1.22 and the script being for version 1.21. I'd prefer to not install this game under Wine.
Steps to reproduce this issue
On Manjaro Linux: download Arx Fatalis from GOG install innoextract download/install Arx Libertatis from AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/arx-libertatis/ follow instructions on Arx Libertatis Wiki: https://wiki.arx-libertatis.org/Installing_the_game_data_under_Linux run into error

It should work if you pass the .exe file from the GOG download as the data location.
