That doesn't look like the full error message... usually there's some more?

This I believe is the full log. Artix linux, NVIM v0.6.0-dev+284-gc2a65921d

This could be related: hsanson/ale@53ff5f2

To which I fixed the bug with:

@@ -371,7 +371,7 @@ EOF
         if has('g:wakatime_PythonBinary')
             let python_bin = g:wakatime_PythonBinary
         endif
-        if !filereadable(python_bin) && !executable(python_bin)
+        if empty(python_bin)
             if executable('python3')
                 let python_bin = 'python3'
             elseif executable('python')

But this is a trivial case because I don't set g:wakatime_PythonBinary ever. I'm not possitive that the fix is correct (to wakatime-vim).

Also, a quick look through the repo suggests that wakatime-vim will be using go binary in future release? That would mean removing all related python code.

Thanks! Just pushed up a fix.
