So, I've been trying to update to the latest version of Dolphin on my Linux Mint machine, yeah?
The problem is, no matter how many times I try, the compilation process fails towards the end.
Before compilation, I always make sure that I have the latest versions of all of the libraries I need, even the optional ones. I also do my very best to follow all of the instructions on Dolphin Wiki to the letter. No matter what, unfortunately, I don't seem to ever have any luck in completing the compilation process.
In particular, it always hangs when I try to compile the file GBACore.cpp. I've posted the error logs below if they're helpful.
It should be noted that I can run the Flatpak which is available via Software Manager; that's always worked, and has thankfully helped to tide me over for the time being. Ultimately, however, I'd like to be able to access the Dev versions of Dolphin; the Flatpak only has the Beta builds available, which aren't as bleeding-edge as I can get on my Windows machine.
While I acknowledge that compiling Dolphin from source isn't officially supported based on the FAQs, I don't have any other way of accessing Dev builds on my Linux machine otherwise since the PPA is borked. More specifically, I get a message saying, "No supported PPA of this name was found" when I try to add it, even after adding the Universe repository.
If anyone knows what I'm doing wrong, then I'd love to know how to fix it. If there are any other details that you'd like me to provide, then please give me a nudge; I'll provide them when I can.
