this brings images suited to work OOB for RPi3/4/5 with CRT TV sets. it
comes with preconfigured shaders, core options, readable font, ...

instead of relying on values in retroarch or parsing files to determine
the full URL to download updates, it is more flexibile to set these
values at build time to the current needs. much easier maintenance of
future changes (no need to change in retroarch code base), when e.g. URL
for devel or nightly builds will change (or even for releases). also
community members can set up their own update for their community builds
without the need to patch retroarch.
usage:
at build time add e.g. LAKKA_BUILD_TYPE=<type>, where type can be
release, nightly or devel (can be expanded in future) and based on the
build type matching URL will be set.
or add LAKKA_UPDATE_SERVER_URL=http://some.site/path/to/updates and this
URL will be used.
examples
make image LAKKA_BUILD_TYPE=nightly PROJECT=... DEVICE=... ARCH=...
make image LAKKA_UPDATE_SERVER_URL=... PROJECT=... ...
cheats are part of libretro database package, so after overlay for
/tmp/database is created, the cheats are in the cht subfolder. there is
no need for the tmp-cheats.mount units.
following cores were not updated and removed from build, as they fail to
build with old as well as updated:
- citra
- dolphin
- easyrpg
- mame
- mupen64plus_next
- pcsx2
- ppsspp
- same_cdi
build tested only for Generic.x86_64
