Waiting on a reply back on https://github.com/stenzek/duckstation/issues/1193#issuecomment-752253369
Compile instructions here.
Honestly, I'm not interested in making a duckstation app. But if someone else would like to, you are more than welcome to!
@Botspot i can create the app. i already have it compiled for 32bit Raspberry Pi OS anyways. do you want to have the install script compile it, or download a precompiled version?

It depends on how long it takes and how well you maintain it.
If it takes 1 minute, then compiling it would be fine and more future-proof. On the other hand, if compiling it takes more than 5 minutes, it's preferable to distribute a precompiled version to save time.
@chunky-milk You decide.
When overclocked to 2.147 GHz, it took around 10-15 minutes but I'm guessing it will probably be a lot longer at the stock clocks. I think it would be better precompiled.
@chunky-milk How is progress coming?
good. i have not compiled it for 64 bit yet. also, you need a PlayStation BIOS to run it so I need to figure out a solution for that.
@Botspot i think it's done, here is the .zip:
DuckStation.zip
Also, in order to use DuckStation, the user will have to provide a Play Station BIOS and put it inside the ~/local/share/duckstation/bios/ folder after starting up the program.

you meant ~/.local/share/duckstation/bios/?

Yep, sorry
@chunky-milk How difficult is it to obtain a Playstation BIOS?
Apps that require payment, or apps that require the user to produce game files, are discouraged. This is because few users would be able/willing to fulfill the requirements.

It's not that difficult to obtain it although I'm not sure if it should be distributed through Pi Apps. I have a link to it if you want me to add it to the scripts.

Pi-Apps can't distribute illegal stuff. Is the playstation bios illegal to download?
If so, how about being "suggestive" in the description for how to find it? ;)
@Botspot Update: I've created a 32-bit deb file: https://github.com/chunky-milk/raspbian_repository/raw/master/debian/pool/duckstation_20210319_armhf.deb. I'm working on scripts.
@Botspot Update: I've created a 32-bit deb file. I'm working on scripts.
Wow, it must be a pretty complicated script by now!

lol. I totally forgot about this 😂
The deb file is in this repository
edit: deb file has issues with desktop entry so i will not be using it
when creating the desktop shortcuts, both run the same executable, and there is a missing double quote at the end of line 13 of uninstall. also I didn't understand if its legal to download the bios.
