DXX-Rebirth fails to build

Darksavior

@redman223 I tested it now. It installs fine. It auto installed the required dependencies and then it compiled without issues. I'm using a pi4 with raspbian lite buster. Maybe update the retropie pi4 branch?

@Darksavior By that do you mean I should go into Retropie-Setup and run Update?

Darksavior

@redman223 Update raspbian buster as well. I don't know how retropie updates work with alternate branches, so just in case, I'd re-clone the github fkms_rpi4 branch and try again. Make sure you clean the dxx-rebirth source folder if it gives you the option before building again. I did not do anything special to build it. The script should auto-download the required dependencies.

redman223

@Darksavior So I ran:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

In addition to Update from within RetroPie-Setup.

It still does the same thing. Any next steps for troubleshooting?

@redman223 It never failed to build for me so I don’t know. I also never manually installed missing libs.

This is a build error related to the new gcc version in buster. I'm going to send a fix upstream.

@psyke83 Funny how mine built fine then?

It's a problem that crops up only if you build against the legacy drivers. If you've got a Pi 4B or are using the fkms overlay for older, the problem won't happen.

I tried it again today and can confirm that it now installs properly. Thanks for the help!
