32bit Linux Emultators - drivesoslow - 2013-10-04
I noticed that I still cannot installed the 32bit emulator add-ons is this something that is going to be fixed or is retroplayer going to change how they are handled?
Thanks.

yes, these are still broken. i tried uploading the 32bit emulators you sent, but xbmc kept complaining so i gave up for the time being. you can help out by forking https://github.com/garbear/repository.libretro/tree/master/addons, placing the .so in a new version folder, and updating meta.xml accordingly (should be relatively straightforward). not sure when I can get around to this otherwise
RE: 32bit Linux Emultators - drivesoslow - 2013-10-04
How are you choosing the version for the folders, just by iteration or from the actual emulator?
RE: 32bit Linux Emultators - garbear - 2013-10-04
the initial version is actually from the emulator. if xbmc had a flexible versioning scheme, i would append a -1 (like x.y.z-1) for build number, but i think we're stuck with x.y.z - o well
so i just monotonically increment the last number whenever i want emulators to update themselves

Was the error you were receiving from XBMC the error loading add-on or something different all together?
RE: 32bit Linux Emultators - garbear - 2013-10-04
IIRC it was that they were ELF64 class binaries, but that doesnt make much sense so im not sure
my laptop with the repo died and i haven't set up a replacement yet
RE: 32bit Linux Emultators - drivesoslow - 2013-10-04
I updated and compiled the cores from source and now I'm having much better luck. If I install the .so files from your repo the instantly disable and I cannot enable them, if I replace them with the newly compiled I can enable them. The only one still giving me the can't load error is ScummVM which I am working on. I did find an issue in my build system that may have caused some of the issues.
Here is a zip file with all the cores:
