Libretro core for windows (x86_64) is outdated (2019-11-12)

[whocares0101]

The nightly libretro core is quiet old, would it be possible to update this once in a while?

Getting this to build on the buildbot is very frustrating and time consuming because easyrpg depends on many external libraries.

That's why I'm currently not motivated to fix this. Sorry.

We have to move forward though in some way. So what are the options?

[Ghabry]

Do you offer something like docker or similar to replicate the buildbot? Imo the simplest solution is to precompile the dependencies outside of the core and then wget+link.

This is what we do upstream but it only works when you have full control over the environment, that's why I asked about docker.

This will fail for unknown architectures but they can file bugs when this issue occurs.

For custom (Linux) builds I recommend using of system libraries. Lakka and opensuse already do this (which is great) so they are unaffected of this issue and are always up to date

Hi, will v0.6.3 released as libretro core again?

[Ghabry]

the latest is 0.6.2.2. There will be builds when the gitlab migration is finished. (new buildbot)

[Ghabry]

no idea how the dependencies are collected but the core builds now for windows on the new buildbot

Great but I still don't see any easyrpg core here https://buildbot.libretro.com/nightly/windows/x86_64/latest/
