Vice won't install
-
Hi there. I'm trying to install vice on retropie 4.4.4 . I am running it on a pc and have no problems as yet installing other emulators but vice always fails to install and I get the error message " ( /home/pi/retropie-setup/tmp/build/Vice/src/x64 not found)
Any ideas guys? -
@robbieh Something changed upstream and the configuration/build phase fails. It's not something on your side, for now just ignore
vice's installation. Btw, what 'pc' are you running ? Is it Debian/Ubuntu/Lubuntu ? -
@mitu just using a thin client I had lying around running raspbian. Going to put it into an old commodore 16 case I have and run some cold games on it. Thanks for the info tho. Hopefully it will get sorted soon
-
@robbieh If you're willing to give it a try, there may be a solution to get it installed. How familiar are you with Linux ?
-
@mitu not very good with much of this stuff to be honest. I normally use Windows but just wanted to tinker with this thin client and use it as a little project to make use of the c16 case I had? Like my own little updated c16. That s why I wanted fixed to run. I can wait till it's fixed . I'm sure it will be further down the line?
-
@robbieh "fixed?" I meant vice lol
-
OK, we'll see it fixed.
@buzz - it seems the Vice'sconfigurescript doesn't accept--disable-artsanymore and errors out during the compilation (Vice removed the support for it almost a week ago - https://sourceforge.net/p/vice-emu/code/35961/). You want me to send a PR ? -
@mitu you know sooo much more about this than me lol. Thanks 👍 I'm just a 42 year old chap who likes to tinker with stuff from his childhood.
-
Why not give lr-vice a go? Or is this problematic as well?
-
@youxia can't see that option to try it out?
-
@robbieh
lr-viceis in the experimental section of the packages - https://retropie.org.uk/docs/First-Installation/#installing-additional-emulators. You'll have to use the RetroPie-Setup script to install it, since it's not installed automatically. -
@mitu I have removed the option. Thanks for the heads up.

@mitu hi @mitu I'll have to try when I get home from work tomorrow but rest assured I will definitely try and let you know . Thanks for all your help 👍
-
@mitu I like this thread. It's been very informative and helpful. It's highlited an issue that I'm sure other people would have come across 👍
-
@robbieh Don't forget to update your RetroPie script first, before installing. If you're installing from scratch again, then it doesn't matter.
-
@mitu Ok thanks. I'll update it all before I try to install vice again. Once again thanks and I will let you know how I get on
-
@mitu just trying to install it now. Been so busy this us the 1st chance I've had. It's already looking different on the install so hopefully ok. I have also updated the script before I started
