      Hi!

      I am trying to install retropie on ubuntu but it keeps failing to build emulation station. After looking at the logs I think its because it cant find the package 'libcec'. Can anyone help me troubleshoot this? Thanks :)

        @Lermatroid you didn't provide any information to help. No idea even which version of the OS you're running.

        if you have no cec package, your OS is likely too old. you can install without it with some hackery but if your os is old, you probably want to upgrade.
