BizHawk Linux support #22

Closed fenhl closed 1 year ago

fenhl commented 1 year ago

Since version 2.9, BizHawk now offers Ares64, a Nintendo 64 emulator core that runs on Linux. The multiworld installer and companion app should offer a Linux version, and the plugin (BizHawk external tool) doesn't seem to be working without modifications either. Maybe also look into offering a Debian package source for easy installs and updates.

Considering a Debian package or similar out of scope for now since BizHawk itself doesn't provide one yet. Current plan is to use the same install and update flows as on Windows.
