Obtaining Scummvm daily build for Retropie?

duglor

Hi, I hope you are all well. I am wondering how do I install and extract

https://buildbot.scummvm.org/dailybuild ... 6e6.tar.xz
into my retropie-I’m trying to help someone test something here, but I cannot get it to install.

I get the following error
Error while loading shared libraries: libSDL2_net-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
When I run the executable *scummvm

the regular 2.8.0 downloaded and extracted fine directly from the retropie when i asked it to update scummvm to the last binary.

Any tips? Is that something that can be extracted independently by a linux user and just placed in the pie to overwrite what i have?

You're missing the SDL_net library, you need to install it with

apt install libsdl2-net-2.0-0

~~There may be other dependencies needed, the easiest is to install ScummVM in RetroPie and it will install all the other (needed) packages. You can then remove ScummVM, but keep the dependencies.~~

@mitu thanks

@mitu From what directory do i do the
apt install libsdl2-net-2.0-0?

and then from what directory do i do the standalone
installation and extraction from https://buildbot.scummvm.org/dailybuild ... 6e6.tar.xz ?

and in which order?

I'm just asking this to make sure i don't mess up anything in terms of extracting in incorrect directories and just checking in with the expert!

Thanks for all your help here and be well! -Doug

It doesn't matter.

Not sure what you mean here, your post indicated that you've already done this and you get an error when you're executing the new scummvm. Just extract the archive obtained from the ScummVM Buildbot using site with tar, i.e.

tar xJf /path/to/<archive_file>

and you'll be getting a new folder containing the ScummVM installation. You can then rename/move the folder as you like.
