** Patch added: "dolphin-emu-artful.debdiff" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dolphin-emu/+bug/1722129/+attachment/4997813/+files/dolphin-emu-artful.debdiff
** Description changed: - I'm using Dolphin 5.0 on Linux. Worked great until recently, when an - update apparently broke JIT support. With it enabled, the error message - 'WriteRest: op out of range' <0x### uses ####>' appears and the game - won't start. Using anything but JIT still works, but is obviously - slower. + [Impact] + dolphin-emu crashes when attemping to play any game. This makes the package almost unusable. + + dolphin-emu 5.0 does not function correctly when built with PIE enabled + because the JIT compiler relies on the location of various code which is + loaded at the wrong place if PIE is enabled. The package contains a + DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS option to disable PIE. Unfortunately dpkg from + zesty contained a bug which ignores this option (#1576915). The bug was + fixed in artful, but since dolphin-emu was not rebuilt in artful, the + bug occurs there as well. + + [Test Case] + Download the Jewels ROM from this page: + http://wiibrew.org/wiki/Jewels + + Extract the download to get a ".dol" binary. + + Open dolphin-emu and attempt to run it. + + The game should start, possibly with some warnings. It should not print + the most common PIE error: "WriteRest: op out of range". + + [Regression Potential] + The only reverse dependency of dolphin-emu is the games-emulator metapackage. + + Applying the glibc patch may have some side effect not found during + testing. I think this is unlikely because the patch is relatively simple + (renaming all occurences of a few constants). + + [Other Info] + The debdiff for artful contains a patch to fix a FTBFS with glibc 2.26 which is required to be able to rebuild dolphin-emu in artful. + + The above patch is not yet included in bionic, but I have fixed it in + Debian in 5.0+dfsg-2 so it should be fixed there as soon as bionic opens + for development and it's synced from Debian. + + [Original Description] + I'm using Dolphin 5.0 on Linux. Worked great until recently, when an update apparently broke JIT support. With it enabled, the error message 'WriteRest: op out of range' <0x### uses ####>' appears and the game won't start.
