Mednafen version is not compatible #33

Closed qvolant closed 8 years ago

qvolant commented 8 years ago

I'm using Mednafen 0.9.38.7 (installed from Debian stretch repos) but when starting Mednaffe I get an error message :

Error: Mednafen version is not compatible. You need 0.9.36.2 version or above.

I may be wrong but it seems to me that 0.9.38.7 is above 0.9.36.2 ?

Nevermind.

Found the solution in another issue

I use Debian 9 stable 64 bits and I have the same error. I shows: Error: Mednafen version is not compatible. You need 0.9.41 version or above. But Mednafen 0.9.41 is installed.

@cpcbegin

Debian 9 contains an old version of mednaffe (0.8.4) in repositories. This version had a bug (issue #52 ) when certain localizations (i.e. spanish) are used. It was fixed in 0.8.5 version.

A workaround is to run "LANG=C mednaffe" in a terminal.
