Event Timeline
Please update the MAINTAINERS.md file as well. I have stepped down as a maintainer, so I will not update it anytime soon and you could thus take over the maintainership if you want. Keep in mind that you would not have been allowed to land this update unless that was the case. The MAINTAINERS.md file usually forbids other people to land patches for the packages.
Hi @Jacalz! I have already updated the MAINTAINERS.md to reflect that you stepped down. I wouldn't have submitted the patch in the first place had you not done so.
I'm not currently interested in becoming the dedicated maintainer of this package, but might step up if no-one else does so.
- Add maintainers.md
- Set a few default settings
- Create new assets subpackage
- Disable a few built-in libraries and use shared system ones instead
- Bundle assets in main package instead of creating a subpackage
- Figured out a more concise and less likely way to patch configuration.c
- Removed vulkan as default (the default is now openGL)

|---|---|---|
| 194 | It wasn't forcing vulkan. It was choosing it as the default on first launch for any user launching Retroarch for the first time (or who had deleted their ~/.config/retroarch/retroarch.cfg for some reason). Any pre-existing users would keep their existing settings and any user would be free to change to one of the other drivers if that one served their needs better. My research (and testing confirmed) showed that Vulkan is considered stable and well-supported for all software-rendered cores (which is almost all of them) but upon reflection I think OpenGL is the saner default. | |
Build failed, supplemental patch needs to be provided that corrects inaccurate shasum.
