      Hello,

      I'm a first time user.
      I would like to build a Retropie, but for some reason I cannot install the Stratagus port.
      It is Red in my Optional packages list (bad omen, I know), and when I try to install it, I get:
      "Sorry but package 'stratagus' is not available for your system (rpi4)
      Package flags: !mali !kms"

      I guess this means that Stratagus cannot be installed on an Rpi4B, right?
      Can someone verify it? (And maybe tell me why?)

      Pi Model: Pi4B
      Power Supply used: Official
      RetroPie Version Used: 4.8
      Built From: RetroPie image via Raspberry Pi Imager
      USB Devices connected: Xbox 360 wireless dongle
      Controller used: Wireless XBox 360 controller, Logitech K380 bluetooth keyboard
      Error messages received:
      Verbose log (if relevant):
      Guide used: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Stratagus/
      File:
      Emulator: Stratagus (port, not emulator)
      Attachment of config files:
      How to replicate the problem: Try to install Stratagus

      Thanks in advance

        @Fandi that's correct. The incompatibility is due to the kms flag. The exclamation mark ! is a negation symbol, so that package's flags !mali !kms means "not mali and not kms." Your Pi 4 is "kms" so is not compatible:

        Your rpi4 flags: rpi4 32bit arm armv8 neon rpi gles gles3 gles31 mesa kms dispmanx

          @sleve_mcdichael Thank you!
          In this case I will skip it this time.
          Hopefully a Stratagus update will solve it.

          (4 years as a math major, and I couldn't recognize the negation symbol. Well, it was a long time ago, but anyway, shame on me!) :)
