abendbrot's Issues

checksums for libretro snapshots are invalid

!!! Fetched file: fba-libretro-1.0_pre20160719.tar.gz VERIFY FAILED!
!!! Reason: Filesize does not match recorded size
!!! Got:      7854009
!!! Expected: 7856336
Refetching... File renamed to '/mnt/storage/distfiles/fba-libretro-1.0_pre20160719.tar.gz._checksum_failure_.i06zd2te'

This affects few other ebuilds as well. Please reverify.

games-emulation/mame-libretro: Multiple problems

I've found a couple of small issues with mame-libretro:
1.) The Manifest needs updating, looks like the files have changed upstream
2.) The ebuild tries to install docs/mamelicense.txt which doens't exist
3.) It needs a lot of memory when building with debug CFLAGS (about 25GB disk and 9GB of RAM on my amd64 machine with -ggdb), maybe add a warning if these CFLAGS are found?

pcsx-rearmed-libretro fails building on raspberry

It fails because of the following errors :

libpcsxcore/new_dynarec/backends/psx/emu_if.o: In function ari64_init': emu_if.c:(.text+0x420): undefined reference to gteRTPS_neon'
emu_if.c:(.text+0x424): undefined reference to gteRTPT_neon' frontend/libretro.o: In function vout_flip':
libretro.c:(.text+0x278): undefined reference to `bgr888_to_rgb565'

For whatever reason, the ebuild script won't build libpcsxcore/gte_neon.S and frontend/cspace_neon.S, which i think is the cause of this issue

Building it outside of portage work.

Filter out -Ox cflag from fbalpha-libretro

fbalpha2012 is probably affected too.
Some games won't work with -O3 in cflags, i'm not sure debug work properly if you don't filter -Ox cflags either since it needs -O0, and anyway this cflag is appended through makefile.libretro depending if you build for debug or not, so we should probably just filter them all out.

Yeah i know, i have been asking a lot of things lately :)

games-emulation/desmume-libretro is broken.

desmume-libretro-1.0_pre20170907.ebuild and
desmume-libretro-1.0_pre20171024.ebuild point to git commits that are not existent in actual repository.

desmume-libretro-9999-r2 doesn't compile.

When I try to compile -9999-r2, I see the following error message.

make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.

fbalpha profiles

They were removed a few months ago, having a debug use flag would be nice though :).

beetle-psx not working

Hello, I'm hitting libretro/beetle-psx-libretro#188 right now, with stable and unstable version. I know you probably can't do anything about it, but am I the only one here?

mupen64plus-libretro is not the same

Hello,

When I dowload it from retroarch it runs well. But from the overlay it's says :
RetroArch [ERROR] :: Requesting OpenGLES2 context, but RetroArch is compiled against OpenGL. Cannot use HW context.

That's strange, because I just finish a fresh install but before that I didn't have this problem.

PS: gles2 is a global useflag for me.

games-emulation/sameboy-libretro-1.0_pre20171024: several issues

The compilation of that package does not work.

There are similar reports for other packages already part of the Gentoo Bugzilla. See e.g.:

The problem itself and the solution is explained here: https://bugs.gentoo.org/634470#c9

I will try to create a PR...

Missing Art (Thumbnails, Boxart)

Without the ability to download from RetroArch the Portage system of Gentoo could provide this functionality.

What about creating a Meta-Ebuild, which uses the flags which already used by emulators?

We would also need for each Boxart an ebuild.

Downloading RetroArch fails

[request] melonDS and sameboy libretro cores

Libretro has announced two new cores, melonDS and SameBoy. Can you create ebuilds for these cores?

retroarch-1.6.7 ebuild broken

The change below broke retroarch-1.6.7 (the highest unmasked version, currently) and lower versions since the ebuilds don't set SRC_URI and SRC_URI isn't set in the eclass due to the conditional change.

3b542fd#diff-74086e8fc7ebfdb25a58713e51210fbdR51

games-emulation/retroarch: x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev is only required iff "X" and "udev" USE flags are both enabled

As said in the title x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev is only required if both "X" and "udev" are enabled.
Having X without udev can happen if you use mdev or smdev as the device manager.
This dependency prevents building retroarch with X support if you do not have udev
installed.

I find it odd that the mupen64plus USE flag is building mupen64plus-libretro, because this version doesn't pull the GlideN64 plugin according to the mupen64plus-libretro repository: "Mupen64Plus uses GLideN64 (a graphics plugin that is not available in mupen64plus-libretro). "

Maybe a new USE flag called mupen64plus-libretro would be more appropriate.

retroarch ebuild specifies wrong default PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET, causes portage block by default

Since the ebuild specifies IUSE=+python_single_target_python3_4 , if the profile changes the default PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET, which it did recently, portage fails to resolve the ebuild's dependencies without the use manually adjusting USE flags.

Instead of specifying a default, just remove PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET from IUSE, deferring to the values set by python-single-r1.eclass, which you already use.

retroarch fail to build with vulkan

vulkan don't need the "media-libs/mesa:0=[vulkan?]" dependency, especially if you are using closed source ati/nvidia drivers, but it needs "vulkan-base" ( you can find an ebuild there : https://574886.bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=437546 )

games-emulation/retroarch-9999-r3: patch broken

retroarch-9999-menu_setting.patch fails to apply on the current head. The responsible commit should be between the commits reported by portage when it updated the repro:

GIT update -->
repository: https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch.git
updating from commit: b6cd19a83c7f1711d200fce84c115796c1bd6879

Status

Sorry folks,
my machine went fubar some time ago and I ignored digital things for a while in favor of real life issues that I had to deal with. I'm kind of back with a really low end laptop that has trouble playing music, of all things.
I don't have access to repoman so I can't update any retroarch ebuild for a while. I will blindly merge pull requests for now and try to guess fix issues you guys have reported.
The usual one month update cycle will come back when I get a new rig. I will wait at least for zen+ though.

retroarch ebuild got a lot of issues

I did a lot of testing last few days on my raspberry pi, and i noticed a few issues whle trying to build it with correct hardware acceleration support :

OpenGLES needs OpenGL to work, retroarch will build fine with OpenGLES and without OpenGL, but you won't be able to select GL acceleration in UI without the later.
OpenGLES seems to need EGL to build fine.
EGL don't need X11

i'm also experimenting with some arm-specific configure options, i'll do a pull request of a rpi-ready retroarch ebuild after more testing.

games-emulation/retroarch: Installation Fundamentally Broken

The solution should be fairly simple. The ebuild needs to be made multilib-compliant, such that shared libraries are installed to /usr/lib64/retroarch under 64-bit machines and /usr/lib32/retroarch under 32-bit machines.

After fixing this locally, I'll submit a pull request correcting both this and issue #26.

retroarch-1.7.0 version bump

making a new symlink to the new version works fine. However, the build patch is no longer needed, due to upstream changes from #85

Retroarch netplay broken.

Seems that using the .tar.gz files of the commits will not embed the first 7 letters of the commit hash at the end of a libretro core's version number, so netplay is now broken.

According to the retroarch devs, it needs to be accessed with git rev-parse --short HEAD

games-emulation/dolphin-libretro needs a call to eapply_user in src_prepare

The ebuilds for games-emulation/dolphin-libretro don't call eapply_user in src_prepare which is required in EAPI 6 and causes portage to abort with this error message:

 * ERROR: games-emulation/dolphin-libretro-1.0_pre20160807::abendbrot failed (prepare phase):

"nvidia-cg-toolkit" as a dependency

Is this really required? I use Intel Mesa drivers on my laptop and AMD Mesa drivers on my desktop, and I don't see why I need a NVIDIA package to run RetroArch. Can I remove this dependency somehow (I guess by removing shaders?) without stuff breaking?

merge fails because of patch on retroarch

Hi,
While emerging retroarch applying the patch retroarch-9999-build.patch fails.
Here is the log :

Excuse me for my english and my non experience in github (not sure if this is the good way to report bugs). Thanks for packaging retroarch ;-)

games-emulation/mame-libretro-1.0_pre20161121 needs GCC 5

The latest version of mame-libretro refuses to build when using GCC 4.X (it prints "GCC version 5.0 or later needed" and aborts). It might be a good idea to add >=sys-devel/gcc-5.0 to DEPEND.

retroarch dispmanx use flag

It would be nice to add the dispmanx use flag.
On raspberries, kms/X/wayland should not be required use flags since you can use dispmanx (a layer that accesses the video compositing machinery of the raspberry VideoCore gpu)

retroarch-1.6.9 - tad more than a version bump.

retroarch-1.6.9-build.patch is broken, as orbea rewrote to explicitly die in commit libretro/RetroArch@bf8863d#diff-546edcf091f4cb2bca9608b42cdc1534

from #retroarch on freenode:
‎[16:35] ‎<‎orbea‎>‎ anyways if you want to repatch it, just it from die 1 to die :
‎[16:35] ‎<‎orbea‎>‎ wont exit

seems my patch-fu is weak, otherwise I'd just fix it myself and submit a pull request.
if it helps, the commit hash you'll want to use for 1.6.9 is 6f5cad5f5993e27fc1daa5e5e04f1749164f9a1c

mgba-libretro-9999-r1 will build but won't install

For whatever reason (portage output is unclear), mgba_libretro.so is built, but won't install

I have some modifications on my system as I updated gcc and did a massive USE flag cleanup.

Caused by the changed USE flags I need to recompile retroarch.
But it fails during linkage.

need miniupnpc use flag

We need a use flag for miniupnpc support, currently the configure script will enable it if it is present on your system, but the build will fail with the following message :
libretro-common/net/net_natt.c:55:14: error: too few arguments to function ‘upnpDiscover’ devlist = upnpDiscover(2000, NULL, NULL, 0, 0, &upnperror);

beetle-psx-libretro doesn't enable hardware support

This doesn't appear to be documented anywhere but Beetle PSX doesn't enable hardware support by default. You can pass HAVE_HW=1 to emake but this enables both OpenGL and Vulkan. You may want to add opengl and vulkan USE flags to pass HAVE_OPENGL=1 and HAVE_VULKAN=1 instead but you will also need to append-cppflags -DHAVE_HW. The good news is it does appear to respect CPPFLAGS. The resulting library filename changes when you do this so you could mv ${S}"/mednafen_psx*_libretro.so in src_install.

Standalone Version of RetroArch like in Lakka

Lakka made a few adjustments for running RetroArch standalone.

Lakka is also heavily depended on systemd and connman for autodetection and starts of ethernet, bluetooth, wlan.

All services are stored in /etc/systemd/system/

Additional Lakka configs

udevil.conf

Udevil is used to recognize new usb-sticks and to mount it to /storage/roms/

allowed_media_dirs = /storage/roms
allowed_devices = /dev/*

If I may suggest following addition to your use flags:

IUSE="... lakka_standalone"

REQUIRED_USE=" ...
lakka_standalone ( lakka bluez bluetooth ethernet connman alsa-utils wireless-tools dhcp ntfs3g net-tools udevil rfkill systemd kms egl opengl dbus ssh evdev udev)

Enabled are the additions with following commands

systemctl enable sshd
systemctl enable systemd-networkd.service
systemctl enable systemd-resolved.service
systemctl enable wpa_supplicant.service
systemctl enable bluetooth.service
systemctl enable retroarch.service
systemctl enable connman
systemctl enable devmon@root

Gentoo should then boot without X11 / Xorg directly into RetroArch like Lakka if prompted with retroarch=1 on the kernel command line.

Please note that Lakka does run everything as root.

genplus-libretro-1.0_pre20170926: Sonic & Knuckles UPMEM

A line of the post installation information of games-emulation/genplus-libretro-1.0_pre20170926 needs to be changed to fit the current core requirements:

Currently it contains

s2k.bin (Sonic & Knuckles UPMEM (256 KiB) ROM) = b4e76e416b887f4e7413ba76fa735f16

But it seems (Core information in retroarch) that the name has been changed to sk2chip.bin

>>> Failed to emerge games-emulation/retroarch-9999, Log file:

Contrary to the error message, the PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET variable should never be explicitly set – either in make.conf or package.use. Rather, the ebuild itself should be patched to enable either the python_single_target_python3_3 or python_single_target_python3_4 USE flag (but not both) by default.

Happily, I've fixed this locally and will be submitting a pull request shortly.

Drop vulkan-base in favour or tree's vulkan-loader

These appear to be the same thing and RetroArch builds against the latter. Unfortunately I get an error when starting RetroArch under RADV regardless of which package I use but that's another story!

On a side note, this overlay is really great work, thank you very much. I'd love to get this in the tree but obviously it's a lot of packages with some lacking proper releases. I'm pretty stretched as it is but maybe we could work out some kind of proxy maintainership. I don't usually like that option but you clearly know what you're doing here. Unless you'd like to become a dev, of course. 😉

mgba-libretro-cheevo need neon use flag

The library is broken if you build the core with neon cflags but without "HAVE_NEON=1"

reicast-libretro

In your overlay reicast-libretro missing.

parallel now using its own repository + feature request

I noticed parallel-n64 got splitted from mupen64, here is its repository : https://github.com/libretro/parallel-n64

Also, i think it would be a great idea to add an ebuild for beetle-saturn, perhaps going as far as using it as the default saturn emulator in use flags. The mrboom (a bomberman 8 players clone) and mame2003 (for low performance hardware, mame2000 is getting kinda old, people now prefer using fbalpha + mame2003) cores would be some nice additions too.
