Error No output expected from command 'mem = manager:machine().devices[":maincpu"].spaces["program"]'

[consciousgaze]

I tried to see my game id by running
e = Emulator("test_env", roms_path, "", {}, binary_path="/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/MAMEToolkit/emulator/mame/mamearcade64")

But I got error of

No output expected from command 'mem = manager:machine().devices[":maincpu"].spaces["program"]', but recieved: error: 	[string "..."]:2: attempt to index a nil value (field ':maincpu')
Traceback (most recent call last):

OSError: No output expected from command 'mem = manager:machine().devices[":maincpu"].spaces["program"]', but recieved: error: 	[string "..."]:2: attempt to index a nil value (field ':maincpu')

Did I set up things right? or this is a MAME issue?

NOTE:
By running pip3 install MAMEToolkit, MAME isn't installed and the .mame isn't found. So I built mame my self with

cd /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/MAMEToolkit/emulator && \                             
git clone https://github.com/M-J-Murray/mame.git && cd mame && \                                
make SUBTARGET=arcade -j4

I also encountered this error but it does not appear to be fatal. Note that you won't see the id in brackets until you start the game - I got stuck wondering where the game id's were for quite awhile before realizing that.
