Now download the package and its submodules using Wget:
mkdir dolphin-emu &&
cd dolphin-emu &&
grep -v '^#' ../dolphin-list | wget -i- -c \
-B https://github.com
Extract all the tarballs:
for i in *.tar.?z*; do echo "Extracting $i..." tar -xf $i done
Now that everything has been extracted, the required extracted
submodules need to be moved into dolphin-2503. Do that by running the following
commands:
mv -T ext-win-qt-* dolphin-2503/Externals/Qt &&
mv -T SFML-* dolphin-2503/Externals/SFML/SFML &&
mv -T VulkanMemoryAllocator-* \
dolphin-2503/Externals/VulkanMemoryAllocator &&
mv -T cubeb-* dolphin-2503/Externals/cubeb/cubeb &&
mv -T sanitizers-cmake-* \
dolphin-2503/Externals/cubeb/cubeb/cmake/sanitizers-cmake &&
mv -T hidapi-* dolphin-2503/Externals/hidapi/hidapi-src &&
mv -T implot-* dolphin-2503/Externals/implot/implot &&
mv -T mgba-* dolphin-2503/Externals/mGBA/mgba &&
mv -T minizip-ng-* dolphin-2503/Externals/minizip-ng/minizip-ng &&
mv -T rcheevos-* dolphin-2503/Externals/rcheevos/rcheevos &&
mv -T SPIRV-Cross-* dolphin-2503/Externals/spirv_cross/SPIRV-Cross &&
mv -T tinygltf-* dolphin-2503/Externals/tinygltf/tinygltf &&
mv -T xxHash-* dolphin-2503/Externals/xxhash/xxHash &&
mv -T zlib-ng-* dolphin-2503/Externals/zlib-ng/zlib-ng
If you have not installed enet-1.3.18, move
the submodule into dolphin-2503:
mv -T enet-* dolphin-2503/Externals/enet/enet
If you have not installed fmt,
move the submodule into dolphin-2503:
mv -T fmt-* dolphin-2503/Externals/fmt/fmt
If you have not installed libspng-0.7.4,
move the submodule into dolphin-2503:
mv -T libspng-* dolphin-2503/Externals/libspng/libspng
If you have not installed libusb,
move the submodule into dolphin-2503:
mv -T libusb-* dolphin-2503/Externals/libusb/libusb
Now go into the dolphin-2503
directory:
cd dolphin-2503
Apply a patch to force XCB to be used in Dolphin on Wayland to avoid being unable to initialize graphics when launching a game:
patch -Np1 -i ../../dolphin-xcb_env-1.patch
Install Dolphin by running the following commands:
mkdir build &&
cd build &&
cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr \
-D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-D CMAKE_SKIP_INSTALL_RPATH=ON \
-D ENABLE_TESTS=OFF \
-D USE_SYSTEM_LIBMGBA=OFF \
-G Ninja .. &&
ninja
Now, as the root user:
ninja install
-D
CMAKE_SKIP_INSTALL_RPATH=ON: This switch makes
cmake remove
hardcoded library search paths (rpath) when installing a binary
executable file or a shared library. This package does not need
rpath once it's installed into the standard location, and rpath may
sometimes cause unwanted effects or even security issues.
-D ENABLE_TESTS=OFF: This
parameter disables building unit tests.
-D USE_SYSTEM_LIBMGBA=OFF:
This parameter forces the build system to build the vendored copy
of mGBA; otherwise, there will be
compilation errors if mGBA-eeb52e is installed due to different
versions (compiling an older mGBA
results in compilation errors because of it requiring an older
FFmpeg version).
