Guide: compiling ppsspp SDL and Qt version on fedora

[fastrizwaan]

Hi,

Here's how we can build ppsspp latest from git in fedora:

Prerequisites: first build dependencies for PPSSPPSDL (SDL version)

Code:

sudo yum -y install gcc gcc-c++ SDL-devel cmake zlib-devel glibc-devel libICE-devel libX11-devel libXext-devel libSM-devel alsa-lib-devel mesa-libEGL-devel  mesa-libGL-devel mesa-libGLU-devel SDL zlib

Next get the latest git version (about 100mb)

Code:

git clone https://github.com/hrydgard/ppsspp.git ~/build/ppsspp
cd ~/build/ppsspp
git submodule update --init

Build:

Code:

./b.sh

Run:

Code:

~/build/ppsspp/build/PPSSPPSDL --fullscreen

Prerequisites: To build Qt version, we need qt-devel package, fedora 19 has qt4 and qt5. Qt 5 has better sound, qt4 has stuttering sound issue. So, let's build the Qt5 version.

Code:

sudo yum -y qt5-qtbase-x11 qt5-qttools-devel qt5-qtmultimedia-devel qt5-qtbase qt5-qtdeclarative-devel qt5-qtmultimedia qt5-qtjsbackend qt5-qttools qt5-qtbase-devel

Build: Use qmake-qt4 if you want the Qt4 version

Code:

cd ~/build/ppsspp/buildQt/
qmake-qt5 ../Qt/PPSSPPQt.pro && make

Run:

Code:

~/build/ppsspp/buildQt/PPSSPPQt

Thanks!


UPDATE: Updating to the latest git version

First time, do this:

Code:

git remote add upstream https://github.com/hrydgard/ppsspp.git

Code:

cd ~/build/ppsspp/
git pull --rebase upstream master
git submodule update --init

# SDL
./b.sh

# Qt
cd ~/build/ppsspp/buildQt
qmake-qt5 ../Qt/PPSSPPQt.pro && make

That's all folks!
