libretro does not build on Ubuntu 18.04 x64
-
On Ubuntu 18.04 (currently in beta) on x64, libretro fails to build with the following error:
"./libretro-common/include/glsym/rglgen_headers.h:27:10: fatal error EGL/egl.h: No such file or directory"
egl.h is provided by the libegl1-mesa-dev package. Once that package is installed it succeeds in building. I know 18.04 won't be released for a month but this should be a quick fix so that RetroPie can be installed when 18.04 is released.

Same error here after the Stable Ubuntu 18.04 LTS release
-
I'd suggest reporting this in the retroarch discord channel or the github issue tracker.

This should be fixed but I need more info about versions (eg RetroPie). Install the egl headers and see if that helps.
apt-get install libegl1-mesa-devor similar. On phone so from memory. -
Had the compile error. Went to update the libraries - LOADS of issues around dependencies because the setup script includes their own version (?!?!?!) of the SDL2 headers and libraries. Got Synaptic Package Manager to fix the broken dependencies and got the rest of the required components installed and then rerun the Basic Install from the retropie-setup program.. busily compiling away now - will update with results (btw - it still installs its own version of the SDL2 headers and libraries - ?!?!?)

@blakesha Start a new topic and post details / link to log.
I am not aware of any dependency problems.
