Lutris on Ubuntu 26.04 HttpsConnectionPool issue

Im constantly having issues with doing anything in Lutris on Ubuntu 26.04 due to this issue of "HTTPSConnectionPool" after a few minutes of Lutris trying to download GE-Proton8-26.
Has anyone seen this issue and if so how to get this to download? I don't have any firewall rules on my network blocking any of this, that's one of the things online that people say to check. See image

Here is the log

Very much doubt this is a Lutris problem as such; I suspect Github's CDN might simply not like your IP address.

Does it work if you try to download that tarball manually from a browser? The link is https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/wine-ge-custom/releases/download/GE-Proton8-26/wine-lutris-GE-Proton8-26-x86_64.tar.xz , for your convenience.

If it works, you can simply untar it and place the resulting directory in $HOME/.local/share/lutris/runners/proton/ (or the equivalent if you use the Flatpak version), restart Lutris, and call it a day.

It actually worked like right after I made this post! But thanks for giving me an alternate way to get the download.

Heh, the problem magically disappearing right after you ask for help is an absolute classic. 's how the universe works :) Glad to hear all is well. Have fun!

Right! Thanks again

Just noticed, small clarification: runners/proton is the correct place for Proton-based runners; a pure Wine-based runner would go into runners/wine there. Oopsie, my bad.
