Public bug reported: Binary package hint: snes9express
In the repos many different old versions of snes9x can be found. There is currently a new version (1.51) available in a Launchpad PPA: https://launchpad.net/~bearoso/+archive It is actively maintained, which cannot be said from the cruft which is currently in the Ubuntu repos. That (semi-official) GTK+ port of Snes9x has even advanced features like NTSC filters (to have the same look for your games like they did on your TV set). Snes9x and ZSNES are the only advanced SNES emulator that are worth keeping in the repos. Please clean up the other SNES emulators. Above all the old Snes9x versions should be removed since they can be considered partly broken cruft. Further information: 1) My version: Ubuntu 8.10 2) snes9express (1.42-5) in intrepid, currently senselessly updated to snes9express 1.42-7ubuntu1 by James Westby for Jaunty 3) A current Snes9x (with GUI) version should be offered in Add/Remove... 4) Ancient versions are offered to be installed ** Affects: snes9express (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Remove snes9x cruft, add snes9x gtk to the repos https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/316777 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
