Language file nor language fallback file was found!

all of text or tooltips in game start with ERROR:

in game's output I see

[NFO] [02:29:24] Steam detected default language: "english" ... [ERR] [02:29:24] Language file nor language fallback file was found!

strace shows:

note that in getdents manual

Currently, only some filesystems (among them: Btrfs, ext2, ext3, and ext4) have full support for returning the file type in d_type. All applications must properly handle a return of DT_UNKNOWN.

I saw a similar problem when one other game (bioshock infinite) was using same call and xfs did not had that implemented

xfs didn't had it (it was added some time ago) so some older file systems were not formatted with it https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E52668_01/E88149/html/ol7-features-xfschange.html

A developer of this app has marked a post as the answer to the topic above.

Had a chance to verify it on partition with ftype=0 and it seems to work fine, thanks ;)

Wow, thank you for the hot tip. I'll look into this some more. Are you using xfs?

Also, in our code, we treat anything that's not of type DT_DIR as a file, so technically a result of DT_UNKNOWN should work just fine as a found file.
