      @jimbo What's your RetroPie version ? The package is installable - from source - without problems. I just installed it on version 4.4, but the package script hasn't change in over a year.

        4.4 latest version!

        As I said I could previously install but on this new image it fails every time. I suppose I am going to have to dig out the error log and see whats happening under the bonnet!

          @jimbo Look in the /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/logs, there should be a compressed logs file with the compilation logs. What's your pc's hostname ? There is a Libretro bug that manifests itself when the hostname contains win, making the compilation think it should compile the windows version.

            PC’s hostname? What my desktop PC? Which is a iMac?

            I havent had any issues with other Libretro builds.

              @jimbo Well, it was worth a shot, I thought if you had RetroPie installed on an pc (Ubuntu/Debian), this might be an issue.

                  @jimbo Then just get the log file for the compilation and upload it to pastebin.com, maybe we can spot the error.

                      @mitu Uploaded error log file when trying to install lr-px68k

                      https://pastebin.com/embed_js/MJ7PjMdM

                      I can see it being directed to my 'skysource' dir? Why?

                        @jimbo Out of memory - quit ES first. Also what's your memory split ? Not seen an out of memory issue with this emulator before, so maybe due to your config.

                          @buzz Ok quit ES and attempting to install that way!

                          YAY it worked!!!!!

                          As for memory split, not something I have tweaked or touched in anyway!

                            @jimbo May be due to memory intensive ES theme then. Anyway, glad it's working now.
