I actually got the first email with "I cannot install your extras-devel package" before I could try the package myself. So the current situation is completely AFU and even dangerous, for what is worth.

(But tbh I was expecting it)

Nope. While the mupen config dialog is much improved (it's usable now!), I've introduced a problem with the emu that causes it to not be able to load the blight input plugin.
I am currently settling for a three package setup -- one with the gles2n64 plugin, another one with mupen64plus, and a third one (the user visible one) with a menu icon whose dependencies include the former two. So in the future if someone (or me) wants to do a new GUI all he has to do is depend in gles2n64 and mupen64plus but no the menu icon one.

But this is all not written in stone. So if you're using the -devel package at all ensure you know enough about dpkg to issue a --purge command:

Code:

dpkg --purge mupen64plus-arm-gui mupen64plus-arm mupen64plus-arm-gles2n64
