Could not install libpng12-dev
-
Hi again,
after my new installation of retropie https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/25242/unable-to-scrape-unable-to-update almost all seems to work pretty fine.
The only error so far appears when I try to install EasyRPG Player from the experimental packages (RetroPie Extra).
It says "could not install package(s): libpng12-dev"In the past I have created some games with the RPG Maker 2003 myself, so it bothers me that its not working.
Retropie is up to date and scripts are updated as far as I know.
I read some other posts about problems with libpng12 but could't find a solution for the installation.
So, I ask for your help hopefully a last time.
Thank you very much. -

Retropie is up to date and scripts are updated as far as I know.The RetroPie Extra repository has been abandoned for about 2 years and it's not updated. Modify the install script and replace the
libpng12-dev
dependency withlibpng-dev
(here), then try to install again EasyRPG Player. -
You are truely a hero!
Your solution works very well. I have tested the easyrpg player with my homemade RPG and it works, as far as I have played, without any differences compered to the windows pc version.Thanks a lot!
