Some cores missing when building

RetroArch Linux devices
#1

I’ve built retrparch/libretro following the guide at https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/wiki/Compilation-guide-(Linux)

64 cores were succesfully built: 2048 bluemsx dosbox snes9x2005 fceumm fmsx gambatte handy stella nestopia nxengine prboom quicknes snes9x2010 tyrquake vba_next vecx mgba genesis_plus_gx bsnes_cplusplus98 mame2003 mednafen_gba mednafen_lynx mednafen_ngp mednafen_pce_fast mednafen_supergrafx mednafen_vb mednafen_wswan gw prosystem 81 fuse lutro tgbdual gpsp o2em 4do desmume picodrive virtualjaguar mupen64plus 3dengine snes9x vbam scummvm mednafen_pcfx mednafen_psx mednafen_snes yabause hatari meteor mame2010 dinothawr stonesoup bsnes_accuracy bsnes_balanced bsnes_performance bsnes_mercury_accuracy bsnes_mercury_balanced bsnes_mercury_performance mame2014 pcsx_rearmed ffmpeg ppsspp 8 cores failed to build mame emux_chip8 emux_gb emux_nes emux_sms bnes testgl test

But there is missing some core such Amiga, final burn alpha (CPS1, CPS2, Neogeo), reicast, glupen64, parallei, mednafen saturn

Why doesnt appear those cores in failed core list? I think i’m missing something with the guide at https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/wiki/Compilation-guide-(Linux)

Where can i find more detailed information about retroarch/libretro than showed in link above?

Thank you and regards.

Enter in each core folder, try make -f Makefile.libretro, then see why it’s failing. Btw, what distro are you using?

Thank you for answering, sergio-br2, your solution is working.

I’m using Debian Jessie 64 bits.

I did the “make -f makefile.libretro” from libretro-fbalpha2012_cps1, libretro-fbalpha2012_cps2 and libretro-fbalpha and it worked

In libretro-fbalpha2012_neogeo there is no makefile.libretro, only Makefile, but a simple “make” worked too.

In libretro-fbalpha2012 there is no makefiles, but a compile_libretro.sh. Running that file build the core.

Then I had to manually move those *_libretro.so files to cores directory. Running libretro-install.sh copy just the info files, not the .so.

I now have FBA within Retroarch. Thank you very much,

Anyway, why those cores are not built by default?
