Was trying to get MAME set up on gentoo today, and I noticed the official mame linux client isn't in the main repos but "advancemame" is. So I thought I'd try it instead, but when I try to load a game, ie:
Code:
advmame ket

it just spits errors:

Any ideas what's happening here? Advancemame itself doesn't seem to have had a new release since 2018. Should I just bite the bullet and wine the windows build of mame or, alternatively, suffer retroarch's horseshit? There's an ebuild for sdlmame in one of the unofficial overlays but I'd rather avoid installing anything from outside official repos where possible.

This is a bug in advancemame. It needs to be fixed before you can continue. As a first step, consider rebuilding with symbols so we can determine where in the program the bug occurs.

Thanks both, in the end I decided to compile MAME's linux build myself locally (hoo boy did that take a while, too).
