      Hello,

      I try to install Retropie on Ubuntu. I do the installation like you can find on https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Debian/ but I receive some errors.

      One of then is:

      Could not successfully build sdl2 (Simple DirectMedia Layer) v2.x
      (/home/benjamin/RetroPie-Setup/tmp/build/sdl2/libsdl2-de
      v_2.0.7+2_amd64.deb not found).

      I have other error but everyone are like this.

      Do you have any idea to help me?

      It's a new installation of Ubuntu and I have nothing else doing on it.

      Maybe some package or change the source server. I live in Belgium.

      Thank you very much for the help. If I find alone, I will be back to give the answer.

        @lesaje a complete build log is needed. See the logs folder. Please use an external pastebin site

            Well, it may still need more work actually, I need to do some testing.
