@paikerr said in Install in Ubuntu 19.10 Eoarn Ermine:

I have installed RetroPie on Ubuntu 19.10 Eoarn Ermine, but I have had a lot of problems with installing some packages.

Post an installation log somewhere so we can take a look.
We didn't have this kind of issues reported lately and I don't think this is a general issue, but maybe something in particular with your setup. RetroPie-Setup tries to automatically install any dependencies, so there's must be something wrong with these packages being installed.

For instance, libsd2-dev, libasound2-dev and libasound2 are available in both 19.10 and Focal (20.04):

https://packages.ubuntu.com/eoan/libasound2-dev and https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/libasound2-dev https://packages.ubuntu.com/eoan/libasound2 https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/libasound2 https://packages.ubuntu.com/eoan/libsdl2-dev and https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/libsdl2-dev

@mitu Reinstall RetroArch didn't solve the problem. I am starting to consider reinstall RetroPie from scratch.

The installation error is caused by

/usr/bin/ld: impossibile trovare -lGL

Do you have any 3rd party repositories enabled ? It looks like the OpenGL libraries are not found, which is not something that should happen on a normal installation.

@BuZz That was exactly it at least for me and your question was all it took to figure it out. It did something to mesa/nvidia drivers in general and i realized i was in a "I dont know wtf that repo did" situation.

I ended up nuking it finally tonight (been super busy lately) and removed that ppa from my script entirely..My fault! I kind of wonder what the other guy did and it would be great if he posted if he figured it out for someone else later on down the line because it may be different from my situation.

@mitu
After reinstalling everything seems to work fine. Will test for a few days now. Thanks for the assistance.
