      @treco While this might not be the most helpful response, I wanted to chime in on this thread and note that I'm having the same problem.

      This thread here suggests to free up more disk space. So, I started up a virtual machine and installed RetroPie, replicated the problem with about the same amount of disk space that my laptop has. Once I verified the problem exists, I increased the drive size from having 33GB free to 100GB free, with no success.

      ppsspp (the non libretro version) installs fine. I tried updating the RetroPie setup script as well, just to confirm it's referencing the most up to date packages, and also made sure the packages are up to date.

      Hopefully someone has an answer to this one! Hopefully this was informative.

      I'm running Linux Mint 18.1 Cinnamon on my laptop, and Mint 18.3 Cinnamon on the virtual machine.

        It's not a space problem, but an upstream change in one of the repositories that contains the source of the package. It's nothing you can do at the moment.

          @mitu Hey, thanks for the response. I will periodically try it again to see if I can get it working.

          Thanks for the update

            It should build. It's referencing my mirror which is there. Clean the source dir and try again. Unless I managed to accidentally remove a branch or something.

              @buzz The error is not in the RetroPie clone repo, but in one of the submodules of a submodule (!) included. The recursive clone stops with (english messages this time).

                @mitu ah sorry - missed that. Looks like that upstream repo must have force pushed or something to wipe out a commit id. We have a lr-ppsspp update pending, but I can probably fix up our lr-ppsspp repo reference for that submodule in the meantime.

                        This appears to have been fixed, I can now install lr-ppsspp
