Due to long inactivity at Aloshis Emulationstation it might have some need at some time to switch over to Herdingers fork: <https://github.com/Herdinger/EmulationStation>.

I had emulationstation segfault on startup if you have a config file. (Although nobody else running Arch could seem to reproduce this) I found a workaround by downloading the Windows zip for EmulationStation, and dropping the themes folder in ~/.emulationstation. This caused it to work fine.

Additional note for whoever might read this : a warning at the beginning, but loosely related only -- Boost version: 1.60.0 -- Found the following Boost libraries: -- system -- filesystem -- date_time -- locale -- Configuring done CMake Warning at es-app/CMakeLists.txt:102 (add_executable): Cannot generate a safe linker search path for target emulationstation because files in some directories may conflict with libraries in implicit directories: link library [libGLESv1_CM.so] in /usr/lib may be hidden by files in: /opt/vc/lib Some of these libraries may not be found correctly.

this could be related : missing the instruction to effectively link against libboost_locale lib, but ... no idea where to fix it within cmake http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21750547/undefined-reference-to-boostlocaleconvbetween

Tried to compile yesterday, apparently against boost 1.60.0-1 After a compilation with some minor warnings, the link step fails : `boost::locale::generator::generate(std::string const&) const' How can this be fixed ? more details : (full log available if needed) [100%] Linking CXX executable ../../emulationstation CMakeFiles/emulationstation.dir/src/main.cpp.o: In function `main': main.cpp:(.text.startup+0x50): undefined reference to `boost::locale::generator::generate(std::string const&) const' collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status es-app/CMakeFiles/emulationstation.dir/build.make:909: recipe for target '../emulationstation' failed make[2]: *** [../emulationstation] Error 1 CMakeFiles/Makefile2:274: recipe for target 'es-app/CMakeFiles/emulationstation.dir/all' failed make[1]: *** [es-app/CMakeFiles/emulationstation.dir/all] Error 2 Makefile:149: recipe for target 'all' failed make: *** [all] Error 2

emulationstation is asking for boost-libs v1.58.0, but in the Extra repos there is boost-libs v1.59.0. Is there something I can do? EDIT.: Turned out I just needed to recompile (:

emulationstation won't start on arch linux ARM - Raspberry Pi 2: $ emulationstation terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::logic_error' what(): basic_string::_S_construct null not valid Aborted (core dumped)

For Raspberry Pi 2 support, I think you will also need to change if [ "$CARCH" = "armv6h" ] to if [ "$CARCH" = "armv6h" -o "$CARCH" = "armv7h" ]
