Description salim salim 2011-05-27 16:00:42 CEST
i have seen that there are no any package for it at cauldron repo

so i request for a package for it 

the source package is at

http://eu.emudev.org/pcsx2/mirror.php?id=src

so how about it 

=======================

by the way there is a package for the last version of it at MIB repo 

so i decided to install it from there 

and when i try to do that it suggested to me that i need to install LibCg.so

and cauldron didn't have that package

so i installed it from cooker repo

I'm afraid we are short on packagers :(

the link doesn't work atm, nor does http://pcsx2.net/downloads.php 
http://code.google.com/p/pcsx2/wiki/CompilationGuideForLinux does work atm.

Just a status update on this one. Currently PCSX2 does not support 64bit instructions correctly, so I refrained from spending too much time packaging a 32bit only application. The development is going on fine currently and a 64bit version might arrive soon.

IIRC, there was also nonfree content to sort out. We'll need to get rid of it because emulators go in tainted by convention, and we have no nonfree+tainted.

Any update?

Maybe blogdrake.net will help you to rebuild that for MGA5:

I finally got around to packaging this thanks to a ROSA SRPM and to upstream's recent 1.4.0 release that simplify things a lot for packagers and Linux users \o/

Spec file: http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/pcsx2/current/SPECS/pcsx2.spec?view=markup
Mageia App DB: http://madb.mageia.org/package/show/name/pcsx2/release/cauldron (might need a few hours to show up)

Only available in 32-bit for now, 64-bit support is still very highly experimental according to upstream.

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => FIXED
