Package: openmsx Version: 0.8.2-2.1 Little endian MIPS systems were autodetected as "mips" instead of "mipsel", which means openMSX will be built for a big endian CPU. This leads to all kinds of runtime bugs, the most obvious of which is that all SHA1 sums for ROMs will mismatch from those in the hardware configs and software DB, meaning that system ROMs from the pool directory are not found and game ROMs don't run because the mapper type is unknown.
The bug is in openMSX itself, in the script "build/detectsys.py". This is the commit in which I fixed the bug: http://sourceforge.net/p/openmsx/openmsx/ci/92fc9edb This fix was made today and is not yet available in any released version of openMSX. Instead of applying the fix, it is also possible to work around it by forcing the CPU type by passing "OPENMSX_TARGET_CPU=mipsel" to Make (only when building the "mipsel" arch, of course).
