Integrate Daphne Emulator back into the Retropie Script for Ubuntu
-
I have put in a pull request for 'RetroPie-Setup' to install Hypseus Singe vi RetroPie configuration script.
I labelled it in experimental section currently, but should be stable.
https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/pull/3387
If anyone would like to endorse, if that helps, it would be nice :)
Works fine, You would then only need to setup in

If someone knows how to automate switching emulators in Emulation Station, and where to request changes, please let me know.
Switching emulators (via
runcommand's menu) can be done by modifying theemulators.cfgfor a system (i.e.daphne) and add the new emulator command.
In a scriptmodule, this is handled by theaddEmulatorfunction.Is Hypseus meant to be an alternative emulator working for the
daphnerom folder or an independent system ? (looking at your PR) You've modified theplatforms.cfgto add a new system, but your scriptmodule still tries to create adaphnerom folder. -

So should I remove the platforms.cfg changes ?
Sorry first pull request with you guys.

No problems, we'll get this sorted out. I'll take a look at the PR and add some comments by tomorrow. But yes, the
platforms.cfgadditions are not necessary if you wish to use the existingdaphnesystem and rom folder. -

platforms.cfg
Thanks @mitu - I've pulled back the
platforms.cfgchanges now. -
I just tested the script (commit a928ebb) on my Ubuntu 21.04 Server (Wayland/Sway) and I can at least report successful launches of Dragon's Lair and Space Ace. Unfortunately, my test box is hooked up only to a monitor at this point so I can't comment on audio.
Looking good!

mkUserDir "$home/.$md_id/ram" mkUserDir "$home/.$md_id/logs" mkUserDir "$home/.$md_id/screenshots"So it appears this function doesn't set ownership on the parent directories correctly within $home: "Creates a directory owned by the current user."
It shouldn't affect the the installation as data will only be written to the correctly owned child directories. However, it is not as it should be, so I will add a
chown -Rto the end of the install script to ensure it's all owned bypi.You can either grab the latest scripts from the repo (as above) or fix with :
sudo chown -R pi:pi ~pi/.hypseusMany thanks for the great feedback.

Is anyone familiar with the reason that the package, even when up-to-date, still show this in
RetroPie-Setup:'
Update is available'
The installed package version has the correct git tag.
Is this something I have control over?

Not really, since the setup script automatically determines if there's an update based on the source location and the locally stored package info (
retropie.pkgin the install folder). I can't seem to reproduce the situation though, if I install from source then it shows correctly as up-to-date

@dirtbagxon is your retropie-setup script up to date? you may want to rebase it to master - quite a few changes have been made to the surrounding functionality that may affect things.

Thanks for the quick reply guys. I am on the following merge of RetroPie-Setup now:
commit 202fabd1bf0e0638ca71d09cc6af7e233dc0e059 (HEAD -> master, origin/master, origin/HEAD) Author: Jools Wills <buzz@exotica.org.uk> Date: Tue Sep 14 06:38:12 2021 +0100 dolphin - license.txt was renamed to COPYINGI was one commit behind, but testing now still shows as out of date...
I have had this reported from a couple of other users testing the scripts in the field, so not just me seeing it.retropie.pkgshows:pkg_origin="source" pkg_date="2021-09-14T17:58:55+01:00" pkg_repo_type="git" pkg_repo_url="https://github.com/DirtBagXon/hypseus-singe.git" pkg_repo_branch="RetroPie" pkg_repo_commit="327cbd674986b3c93d87beec3da9cec63c05ec57" pkg_repo_date="2021-09-11T16:01:00+01:00" pkg_repo_extra=""Which all looks correct....

@dirtbagxon Still can't reproduce this. You can debug the script by running
sudo __debug=1 ./retropie_setup.shThis will produce a lot of data, but the interesting part (checking for an updated version) will be printed after you select the package from the list, right before the package dialog is shown. Copy the debug info from that part and post it on pastebin.com.
