Streets of Rage Remake 5.2 on Retropie 4.8.8 Issue

STRHYKKER

Hello,

Hardware: Raspberry Pi 5, 8GB
Software: RetroPie 4.8.8 (current)
OS: Debian Bookworm 12 64-bit

I've read all the SORR posts (most recent 2022 before mine).

When running the experimental package of "sorr.sh" from the RetroPie setup script, I constantly get the error message: "Could not install package(s): libpng12-0."

Obviously, without this, I can't get SORR to work.

While doing some Google searches, it appears this package no longer exists anywhere.

If I perform -- sudo apt install libpng12-0 -- I get the following:
Package libpng12-0 is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source.
Package 'libpng12-0' has no installation candidate.

Any suggestions? Thanks for your time!

RetroPie doesn't include any SORR scriptmodule, it was/is an 'extra' script.

See this topic for a workaround, but given it wasn't working properly on a Pi4, I doubt it will be better on a Pi5.
The binary provided is a 32bit program, it will not run as-is on a 64bit system, so you have more work to do if you really want to at least start the program.

@STRHYKKER unfortunately no. Sorr doesn't work on the Pi5. Only the pi3 and pi4 since they have 32bit

It should be locked from installing on the pi5 if you got the script from my GitHub.

And I don't know of a workaround. And no one has made a new sorr that works on 64bit that I know of

@ExarKunIv @mitu appreciate the replies! thanks for the information! I will move on with other pi tasks. :)
