Won't install on Steam Deck #2645

I'm trying to install the latest version on my Steam by following the FAQ on your website, but it failed. Do you plan to add flatpak support do that I may install it like I did with other emulators?

There is an unofficial flatpak at issue 1418

@Waifu4Life what error do you get when you try to run the emulator? Did you try to run it in a Terminal window in desktop mode? You should be able to see the exact error if you run it that way.

In my case with the latest build (as of writing this) the emulator wouldn't start at all, showing this error:

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::runtime_error'
  what():  locale::facet::_S_create_c_locale name not valid
Aborted (core dumped)

and I was able to solve it by setting the environment variable LC_ALL=C when executing the emulator:

LC_ALL=C ./Vita3K

Hope it helps anyone else having the same issue on Steam Deck. Having said that having a Flatpak or AppImage release would be great.

Thanks.
