Description Craig Andrews gentoo-dev 2018-07-24 03:56:15 UTC
nestopia can build a libretro core, therefore a "libretro" use flag should be added that optionally builds it.

A libretro core is just a shared library (in this case, it'll end up at /usr/lib64/libretro_nestopia.so). To build it, "make && make install" needs to be run in the libretro subdirectory.
