    I hope we are getting DOSBox Pure at some point.

      @bberlin1 I think you are missing the emulators.cfg file in configs/pc/, which you can probably restore by removing the dosbox-pure package and reinstalling again, below is how mine looks like:

      default = "lr-dosbox-pure"
      lr-dosbox-pure = "/opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-dosbox-pure/dosbox_pure_libretro.so --config /opt/retropie/configs/pc/retroarch.cfg %ROM%"

        @bberlin1 instructions no longer needed as lr-dosbox-pure is now under experimental packages (make sure to update your package list)

          @retro81 This did the trick -- reloaded everything using the experimental package and was able to play me some old school Doom 2.

          Thanks again for your help!

            @xwons I followed your directions on my Raspberry Pi 2. DOSBox Pure compiled successfully but it doesn't work. The game doesn't run. This is the output in /dev/shm/runcommand.log

            Parameters: 
            Executing: /opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L  /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-dosbox-pure/dosbox_pure_libretro.so --config /opt/retropie/configs/pc/retroarch.cfg "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/pc/1duke.zip" --appendconfig /dev/shm/retroarch.cfg
            /opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh: line 1283:   891 Illegal instruction     /opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/bin/retroarch -L /opt/retropie/libretrocores/lr-dosbox-pure/dosbox_pure_libretro.so --config /opt/retropie/configs/pc/retroarch.cfg "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/pc/1duke.zip" --appendconfig /dev/shm/retroarch.cfg

              @sega-dude can't you just install the binary from the experimental package list?
