The comment at https://github.com/snes9xgit/snes9x/releases/tag/1.59 now says "Warning: Please don't use. Use the 1.59.2 release". Looking at https://github.com/snes9xgit/snes9x/blob/master/docs/changes.txt it appears that two major bugs were fixed: Snes9x 1.59.2 - Fix out-of-bounds access on APU memory. Snes9x 1.59.1 - Fix sound core breakage. (Though if I'm reading the diffs right, The fix in 1.59.2 is for a regression introduced in 1.59.1, so relative to 1.59 the sound core breakage is the only bug that was fixed.) Not having tried 1.59 I don't know how exactly sound broke, but I'm not interested in finding out myself ;) .
The bug has been closed via the following commit(s): https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=7f7bfc363da0846d67ffec9cf5fc30eafcd97f70 commit 7f7bfc363da0846d67ffec9cf5fc30eafcd97f70 Author: Marc Joliet <marcec@gmx.de> AuthorDate: 2019-03-16 17:34:07 +0000 Commit: Lars Wendler <polynomial-c@gentoo.org> CommitDate: 2019-03-18 16:04:32 +0000 games-emulation/snes9x: bump to version 1.59.2 Upstream says with regards to version 1.59: "Warning: Please don't use. Use the 1.59.2 release". A version bump thus seems prudent.
