Need to append "--disable-x11" to configure step, then it works.

Hello @wayland I'm not maintaining it for the rpi3 and I didn't manage to get a build for it.

It seems to me that the error you have is at runtime. Normally you should be able to run the program using one of the other driver. I don't have X11 or Wayland installed on my rpi2 and it works normally on dispmanx.

If you believe the problem is in the build and everyone would benefit from this change, you could make a PR on github. Otherwise you can simply edit the PKGBUILD for you when you run the build.

X11 input/video drivers are activated, which lead to error on rbp3:

…

[INFO] [Video]: Graphics driver did not initialize an input driver. Attempting to pick a suitable driver.

[ERROR] Currently active window is not an X11 window. Cannot use this driver.

[ERROR] [Video]: Cannot initialize input driver. Exiting ...

@cecton Seems the incompatibility with mupen caused by https://github.com/libretro/libretro-mpv/issues/7. Sorry for my wrong conclusion.

cecton commented on 2017-12-26 21:30 (UTC)

Thanks @jewelux I will revert that changes

New build instruction seems to break compatibility to some cores e.g. mupen64plus. To recover compatibility you should remove the line starts with "export PKG_CONFIG_PATH ..." Tested on RPI2

@MattScherbatsky sorry not tested on Rpi3. Maybe you can fix it?

Raspberry Pi 3, new installation and I get this error: CC deps/miniupnpc/minisoap.c CC tasks/task_decompress.c LD retroarch /usr/bin/ld: obj-unix/gfx/drivers/dispmanx_gfx.o: undefined reference to symbol 'vc_dispmanx_display_close' /opt/vc/lib/libbcm_host.so: error adding symbols: DSO missing from command line collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [Makefile:148: retroarch] Error 1

@cecton The build option holdver is helpful if you already got (and saved) the source code of a working version. But usually it is not the case if you are using a package manager like yaourt or you are installing the package for the first time. So it could be make sense to provide both: a package "retroarch-rbp" for the last stable release and "retroarch-rbp-git" for the current development branch. Anyway thx for the working 1.6.1 update!

cecton commented on 2017-07-04 09:31 (UTC)

@jewelux I put back the Git version again. The build seems to work now. Now I wonder. How people do usually handle this when the master branch is broken? But I think I have my answer, there is an option that probably helps in makepkg: --holdver Do not update VCS sources
