After the update my Tropico 5 Linux version does not start anymore. The error message writes: "missing programme file" /home/steam/steamapps/common/Tropico 5/Tropico5"

[yeyo]

same problem as above

Same problem as above. Looks like the binaries were replaced with a "emptysteamdepot" folder. Hopefully this will be fixed soon.

Also confirmed you messed up the Steam content for the Linux build. It downloads a bunch of data but a bunch, including the binary is missing.

[LotharMucki]

I do hope, there's someone official reading this... and fixing this.

[Internet Native😳🖥]

Who tf thought that updating the game would be a good thing???

[Squiddy]

They replied, they're looking into it.

[d10sfan]

It's not the launcher, there aren't any binaries for the game in the Linux depo currently, so there's no way to play it. We have to wait for them to fix it.

I'm on Windows 10 and get error code 51. Does not launch.

I have the same issue. Before the last update, the game was running fine and dandy in my humble machine, no crashes, no buggy behaviour. I'm running Lubuntu 20.04 Linux. i've tried all measures recommended by Steam Support like checking the game files integrity or flushing the cache. I've also rebooted the system after applying the steps given by the troubleshoot guide.Everything I tried was to no avail. I'm optimistic Kalypso will try to solve this issue soon. I'm planning on buying the two wxpansions and some DLCs. I love ruling Tropico!

Like I already said, they're on it. Nothing can be done our end, they messed up the download.

I'm having the error code 51 too

On macOS I discovered how to play selecting the previous version as a beta brunch on game properties (need to enable beta program on steam options).

if you wanna play it you can switch to 1.10 legacy in the beta branch. linux version seems to work this way
