Install Citra-Emulator Ubuntu 17.04

Question

I'm trying to install Citra Emulator. I downloaded and extracted it (tar.xz) and it gives me an "executable (application/x-executable)". When I try to run it, nothing happens. I've also tried running it from terminal with

./citra

I`m running Ubuntu 17.04, let me know if any more information is needed.

Any help is appreciated

Solution 1

Make sure the executable has the correct permissions. If not, run chmod +x ./citra and chmod 776 or similar. Then, try to execute it with ./citra or sh ./citra.

If this doesn't work, try looking if it has some missing dependencies with:

ldd ./citra

For the error mentioned:

Try looking at: libsdl2-2-0-so-0-cannot-open-shared-object-file

Or

Solution 2

You can Download The "citra-setup-linux" from the site and run it using

chmod +x ./citra-setup-linux

And Then

./citra-setup-linux
