I haven't played this on ubuntu before, but this looks like it could be one of two things if my windows logic applies.

You're calling the executable from not the game folder. The weidu.exe needs to be in the game directory. It'll be called setup-mod.exe or something like that. If you're calling weidu functions directly from command line maybe it's calling it from root or a different directory? If this run it from that folder should fix. Might have to enter in the full directory filepath.

Or it could also be a language pathing error due to having wrong version of weidu. Beamdog has moved and renamed different folders in different versions including where they put dialog.tlk, and weidu has been periodically updated. Maybe your weidu is looking in a wrong folder - might need a different version or updates.

WeiDU on Linux doesn't work correctly on normal linux filesystems (case sensitive), it is work in progress: https://forums.pocketplane.net/index.php?topic=30089.0 (2 weeks ago).
