The mGBA package provides a GBA emulator. It can also be used with other emulators.
CMake, libepoxy, libpng, and libzip-1.11.3
desktop-file-utils, FFmpeg, Lua, Qt-6 and/or SDL2 (for the frontends), and SQLite
Install mGBA 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 \
-G Ninja .. &&
ninja
Now, as the root user:
ninja install &&
mv -v /usr/share/doc/mGBA{,-eeb52e}
-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.
mv -v /usr/share/doc/mGBA{,-eeb52e}: This command ensures the doc folder for this package is consistent with the other packages.
