Newbie here - what am I missing? With latest source, I'm trying to compile peripheral.joystick. I followed the wiki from here http://kodi.wiki/view/Compiling_Kodi-Game

I get the following error when i execute the "make"

Code:

New user here as well who's been having the same problem. I've tried setting different flags (namely changing install prefix) but the error persists.

it means you need to build install kodi(retroplayer fork). Either in a system wide default location or you have to tell cmake where to find the files mentioned by passing -Dkodi_DIR=/path/to/kodiConfig.cmake

I got the same thing when trying to build peripheral.joystick and for some reason supplying -Dkodi_DIR=/path/to/kodiConfig.cmake didn't work.

What worked for me was to revert:
https://github.com/kodi-game/peripheral....8dcfc5732e
[Yes, I know the commit in question is a revert]

The master branch of peripheral.joystick uses "Kodi" and only this seems to work for me on Arch Linux.

[garbear]

RetroPlayer uses the 'retroplayer' branch of peripheral.joystick. As you can see from the network graph, that revert commit is only for building against RetroPlayer, not Kodi master. This probably because RetroPlayer is (or was) based on an older version of master. I plan to rebase on 17 alpha 3 soon, when I do I'll evaluate if the revert is still needed (probably not, looking at your results).

I have the same issue, except joystick compiles fine it's the game one that doesn't.

[garbear]

No offense, but I give zero shits unless you post the error message or a better description of the problem.

It's because of the rename of the Kodi/kodi config file:

It's because of the rename of the Kodi/kodi config file:

Ah, hudokkow got all the kodi-game add-ons, but Moonlight was sitting under my username and got missed. I've updated game.moonlight, but be aware that it's not finished and may be missing a dependency. One failing add-on shouldn't interrupt the build process though.
