Advmame 1.4 not listed in setup

PiDad

@PiDad any advice on finding out how retropie setup decides what options to give under "optional packages"? Is there some log I can look at or a way to debug?

AlexMurphy

@PiDad They are all there and should be on v4.2.

Sounds like you updated retropie-setup and not the binaries. There is a message on update you must have missed regarding this.

PiDad

@BuZz hi Buzz, thanks for the advice, I had tried to do this but perhaps made a mistake. I chose "update retropie setup script" then after that "update all installed packages" answering yes to the question about underlying os.
I am running the whole thing again, I'll post a screenshot when finished, if I still have the same issue any further advice would be gratefully received.

PiDad

Have redone update, it's just the same :( here is my optional packages menu alt text

Install log is here, don't know if it sheds any light, the only errors I can see are under Mame2014 and mupen64plus, both of which are working fine

@PiDad please post the output of this typed in a terminal over ssh cat ~/RetroPie-Setup/.git/config and git -C ~/RetroPie-Setup log --name-status HEAD^..HEAD

PiDad

@BuZz here you are, thanks BuZz

@PiDad I see exactly what your issue is. I assume this is because you manually installed on top of the existing OS rather than using the RetroPie image. Your setup script is pointing to the petrockblog github repo rather than the RetroPie Master. There have been an additional 141 commits to the RetroPie repo since the last to the petrockblog.

Replace the contents of the config file with the information below then reboot and update again. That should get you totally up to date.

[core]
        repositoryformatversion = 0
        filemode = true
        bare = false
        logallrefupdates = true
[remote "origin"]
        url = https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup.git
        fetch = +refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master
[branch "master"]
        remote = origin
        merge = refs/heads/master

Have a look at this to see the differences https://github.com/petrockblog/RetroPie-Setup/compare/master...RetroPie:master

PiDad

Awesome, thanks for taking time to look into this, I will let you know if I have any further issues

PiDad

@AlexMurphy works perfectly. Thank you!

Hi everybody,
I've got my rpi4 with RetroPie 4.7.2 with the exact same problem. But unlike PiDad, my setup script is pointing to the master repo: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup.git

Any help would be appreciated,I really need to get avdmame 1.4 installed so I can get my lightgun up and running.

Cheers
Magickz
