Lr-Caprice32 installation error from source

Cesarpuig · 14 Jun 2022, 18:51

Hello.

On a Rasberry pi 4 with Retropie 4.8.2, when I try to update Lr-Caprice32 from source I get the following error:

It looks like something's wrong with the submodule. Clicking on the cmocka folder in the repo just loops back to the same page; other times you can click on a submodule and be taken to that submodule's own repo.

By inspecting .gitconfig I can see that the URL of the submodule is https://git.cryptomilk.org/projects/cmocka.git. I am able to manually clone that repo and checkout commit 6066c5c; I'm not sure why it is unable to do this automatically as a submodule. Perhaps a new issue report is in order:

It's an issue in the upstream repository, triggered by the usage of --shallow-submodules. Curiously though, a newer git version is able to work-around this problem.

@sleve_mcdichael you can report it to the upstream project, but make sure you mention the git version used

The problem fixed upstream, thanks @sleve_mcdichael !

(edited your post so the issue status gets updated, looks like the github plugin in the forum doesn't do live updates).

Hi,

i have got the same Error message as @Cesarpuig and @sleve_mcdichael
I'm running:

RetroPie-Setup version: 4.8.3 (8fc96a7)
System: x86_64 (x86_64) - Ubuntu 20.04.5 LTS - Linux NUC 5.15.0-60-generic #66~20.04.1-Ubuntu

with the newest git version 2.25.1

I'm very new to this topic, but if I understand correctly the issue was fixed and it should work if I just run the basic installation within RetroPi. Unfortunately I got the error message as you did.
Or do I have to run some commands manually to install Lr-Caprice32 myself. Which commands would that be? After I did it, can I continue with the 'normal' installation?

Thank you for your help!

Yes, looks like it is happening again. Just ignore it for the time being and continue with the rest of the installation.
