[Amiberry] check-list for next release

[nemo93]

Hello!

As promised I'm now raising ticket instead of PR to prevent delays/misunderstanding/mistakes. Below the requirements for new Amiberry release, 5.6.0.

depends:

• libserialport-dev

repo:

rp_module_repo="git https://github.com/BlitterStudio/amiberry v5.6.0"

data

There are some new files in data that should be included (for virtual keyboard).

misc:

The patch Retropie does apply has to be removed otherwise the new version won't build. Following lines have to be commented out from scriptmodules/emulators/amiberry.sh:

applyPatch "$md_data/01_preserve_env.diff"
# use our default optimisation level
sed -i "/CFLAGS += -O3/d" "$md_build/Makefile"

Release note:

https://github.com/BlitterStudio/amiberry/releases/tag/v5.6.0

Thanks.

Thanks for the heads up. I assume 5.6 is the next version ?

[nemo93]

That's correct.

Scope for 5.6 has expanded which brings an even better compatibility (eg. Zool 2 is working). Following a testing session I do confirm there's no noticeable performance impact after compiling latest master. At least on RPi4. This might be different on RPi3. Therefore if anyone could test on such device with 'heavy' copperlist games (eg. Jim Power, Risky Woods, Shadow of the Beast) that would be appreciated.

@cmitu 5.6.0 has been released. I've updated the first post with everything. Let me know if I can be of any further assistance.
