Virtual Gamepad no longer working

[HerbFargus]

I wonder if this had something to do with all the Jessie stuff?

here's the errors:

Possible fix but I dont have time to test it. Once I've tested it and if it works I'll submit a pull request:

a diff would be better so I can see the changes.

Looks like those binaries are not for our version of linux (libc) anyway - we should really be building from source etc.

does https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/commit/1d501d9f8768574e5523975cc4ab932925325c35 help ?
