Gnome games discovers psx games, but when I try to start one, it says Playstation system is not yet supported. When trying with flatpack version of gnome-games-app these games work. On gnome-games-app website they say there is pcsx-rearmed included with the flatpack. I have looked into possibilities and there is no pcsx-rearmed in repositories. There is only pcsx-reloaded. When pcsx-reloaded is installed, nothing changes. |
Gnome-games-app discovers Playstation games, NES games and all other games supported by Libretro, but when I try to start one, it says "Playstation system is not yet supported", even if the proper libretro core is installed from the Universe repository.

Obviously the Debian/Ubuntu package of GNOME-games-app is compiled in a way that it doesn't pick up the libretro cores and thus cannot start the emulation.
The package is broken in Artful und Bionic. But I seem to remember that it worked in Zesty (I hope that this memory is true).
Jeremy, did you change any compile flags between Zesty and Artful? |

Ubuntu/Debian and even the upstream "Libretro" team PPA (https://launchpad.net/~libretro/+archive/ubuntu/stable) do not ship the descriptor files for the libretro cores.
Those descriptor files are listed in: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-games/tree/master/flatpak/libretro-cores
Due to the missing descriptor files gnome-games-app cannot pick up those cores and play the games.
Those descriptor files should be shipped within the libretro packages and installed alongside the proper .so file.
==Workaround==
Add those descriptor files manually:
My example is the Nestopia (Nintendo NES) core
1) Ubuntu installs the cores in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libretro
If you install the libretro-nestopia package the file nestopia_libretro.so will go there automatically
2) See the list above: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-games/tree/master/flatpak/libretro-cores
3) Choose the proper file for the core, here it is the file nestopia.libretro
4) Start up gedit with superuser privileges and add this file alongside the .so file. The content of the descriptor file in my example would be:
[Libretro]
Type=Emulator
Version=1.0
Name=Nestopia UE
Module=nestopia_libretro.so
LibretroVersion=1
Authors=Martin Freij;R. Belmont;R. Danbrook;
License=GPL-2.0+;

Mandatory=true
5) If you use the upstream PPA, the nestopia_libretro.so file is installed to /usr/lib/libretro instead of /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libretro. You would have to add the descriptor file in this directory instead. |

==Workaround 1==
