RetroArch for Raspberry Pi 3B+

Prerequisites

Make sure you run this inside a Raspberry Pi 3B+ with Raspbian! Otherwise it won't work! This script prepares a build of RetroArch for Raspberry Pi 3B+.

Install the following dependencies first:

$ sudo apt install -y devscripts build-essential lintian

Create a release

Clone RetroArch (and select an appropriate version if you want, current tested version is 1.9.4):

$ git clone https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/

Copy this pkg/debian folder inside RetroArch (it should look like the following):

retroarch
    ├── [...] # RetroArch sources
    └── debian
        ├── changelog
        ├── compat
        ├── control
        ├── copyright
        ├── dirs
        ├── docs
        ├── retroarch.lintian-overrides
        └── rules
$ cd retroarch

We are using debuild to help us to create a debian package. More information on how to use the tool can be found here.

$ debuild -b

The process should start compiling RetroArch. After the build finishes, relevant *deb file can be found in parent directory of RetroArch.

If you want to customize flags to modify settings for RetroArch, modify rules file.
