ppsspp: add SDL and headless

Open SamLukeYes opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Change the default ppsspp package to SDL front end, as it supports Vulkan, and is allowed to build the headless binary together.

Description of changes
  • New packages

    • ppsspp-sdl
    • ppsspp-sdl-wayland
  • Packages changed

    • ppsspp now uses SDL front end, includes the headless binary, and supports Vulkan
    • The original ppsspp with Qt front end is renamed to ppsspp-qt
    • Add a desktop entry for the packages above
  • Additional notes

    • Qt front end doesn't support Vulkan yet. See https://github.com/hrydgard/ppsspp/issues/11628
    • SDL front end has trouble with Vulkan on Wayland, so Vulkan support is disabled by default in ppsspp-sdl-wayland. See https://github.com/hrydgard/ppsspp/issues/13845
