Not so long ago I took a look at the Atari ST emulator available in the repo and also wanted an Amiga emulator but never saw one in Slitaz so I downloaded several versions from three or so different Debian Amiga emus, I couldn't make a usable FS-UAE one which is the most up to dat Amiga emu, it wasn't working, I don't like CLI so I didn't spend time to find what was the problem with FS-UAE, what was missing and so on so the only ones that worked after .deb to .tazpkg conversion were the ones I attach here just in case they can be added to the repo or if anyone is interested in them too.
I must say that I converted a lot of versions and I only tried to start them up, I didn't try to play with them so I suppose that if their GUI appeared on screen the whole app will work correctly too. Both emus are old versions and discontinued and do not autoinstall an icon (I don't like that) so to start them up, you'll have to use the terminal and type cd /usr/bin (enter) and then the name of the app (enter).

As I said I used tazpkg convert command to convert two old Amiga emulators that work in Slitaz without worrying about dependencies and so but I can't attach those packages here and maybe there are some Amiga lovers here who could use them to play and remember old missed times, I know they are not the FS-UAE but this are the only ones that worked right after conversion without doing anything else.

What are the names of the packages and where can they be found?Posted 5 years ago # -

Bellard proposed the same.
I downloaded both uae variants from https://snapshot.debian.org/ then I simply converted them with tazpkg. I have sent both converted tazpkgs to Bellard, they worked without doing anything else, no error messages and their GUI appeared on screen no more testing was done.A couple minutes ago I tested fs-uae package, it didn't work. I used an old Slitaz live cd (just to see if fs-uae works on old Slitaz or needs the most up to date one), I didn't add or removed anything from the preinstalled apps or altered anything and fs-uae didn't work then I applied all the updates to that old live cd but fs-uae didn't work neither, error message was in both tests this one:
[GLAD] Failed to initialize OpenGL context
Here I attach error log.
I hope Bellard can include my tazpkgs just in case anyone wants to use an Amiga emu until fs-uae is repaired, neitherr of my two packages nor fs-uae create an icon in the apps menu, all have to be started from terminal (this is the only thing I don't like from any app)Attachments
