After building OBS Studio on Ubuntu 16.04 with no errors, i went into ~/obs-studio/build/obs and ran ./obs. I immediately get the error stated in the title, followed by "Failed to load locale". This is the first time I'm attempting to set up OBS on Linux, and I'm a little stumped as to what's going on. I'm figuring it's a me problem somehow, but after much searching and rebuilding of the source I can't seem to find a solution. I also can't seem to find a log to attach.

EDIT: I also get this in the terminal:

Attempted path: share/obs/obs-studio/locale/en-US.ini
Attempted path: /usr/share/obs/obs-studio/locale/en-US.ini
error: Failed to load locale

There is no /usr/share/obs directory on my system after building obs.

The build folder is not for running.

Did you checkinstall afterwards?
OBS should show up in the unity launcher when you search for obs then or you can start it with the terminal by simply typing obs.

dpkg-query: package 'obs-studio' is not installed and no information is available
Use dpkg --info (= dpkg-deb --info) to examine archive files,
and dpkg --contents (= dpkg-deb --contents) to list their contents.

Sigh. I just deleted build, and rebuilt it. It appears to have done some things during checkinstall this time that it didn't last time. It's working fine now.
