* Package name : psemu-video-x11 Version : 1.15 Upstream Author : P.E.Op.S. (Pete Bernert) * URL : http://sourceforge.net/projects/peops/ * License : GPL Description : P.E.Op.S. software graphics plugin for PSX emulators This plugin provides software video rendering support for PSX emulators. There are also a number of per-game graphical fixes, as well as a set of filters for improving the output quality of the emulator graphics. The version I am packaging has been modified to be operate independent of the working directory, and to read/write its config file to a standard location in a dotdir. The plugin is for PCSX; see bug #137355 for more on that. There are a number of other psemu plugins. NOTE: This package is rather troubled, as it is. It will not build with GCC4 due to an lvalue error (which can be fixed), and there are problems in one of the files it includes from X (Xmd.h, I believe) that also cause GCC4 errors. It also has a lintian override due to the i386 ASM in the library creating non-PIC code. Unfortunately, this is the only DFSG-free video driver available for PSX emulators. I may check with Pete Bernert, the author of most of the free-as-in-beer PSX video drivers, if he is interested in finally releasing the source of them, but he hasn't expressed a desire to do so in the past. Please ignore invalid ITP numbers in the changelogs for now, if any are reported. I'll upload fixed versions shortly after I get all of the ITPs filed.
