      Good evening,

      I've tried installing RetroPie 4.7.1 on a newly installed Ubuntu server (20.10) on a Raspberry Pi 4.

      However, I've encountered the following error:

      
      gfx/drivers_context/vc_egl_ctx.c:49:10: fatal error: EGL/eglext_brcm.h: No such file or directory
      
      #include <EGL/eglext_brcm.h>
      
      ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      
      compilation terminated.
      
      make: *** [Makefile:206: obj-unix/release/gfx/drivers_context/vc_egl_ctx.o] Error 1
      
      make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
      
      ~/RetroPie-Setup
      
      Could not successfully build retroarch - RetroArch - frontend to the libretro emulator cores - required by all lr-* emulators (/home/ubuntu/RetroPie-Setup/tmp/build/retroarch/retroarch not found).
      
      

      Any way of making it work, please?

        @alien we only support Raspbian / Raspberry Pi OS on the Raspberry Pi. Use a prebuilt image or install manually on Raspberry Pi OS.

          Sure, but I need to be in a 64 bits OS in order to have FreeTube working correctly: isn't there a way to have both Retropie and a 64 bits OS?

            @alien Most stuff works on the 64bit raspberry pi OS beta. But it's not officially supported.
