but it seems that RAR support can be disabled. Does the fact that the
libsnesreader.so is dlopened and not linked to change anything here?
Yes. It does change libsnesread license and bsnes license can even be
incompatible AFAIK. But the libraries used in libsnesreader must still
have licenses that are compatible among themselves.
Also, unless somebody is willing to do the work to make this monster
acceptable for a Review, we have two options:
1. keep updating the emulator regardless of the missing compressed ROM
images support, or
2. stay at version 0.050 indefinitely
I'd go with option 1, maybe including a note in the readme explaining
why the support is missing and what can be done to help the situation.
What do you guys think?
I'd go with option 1, but I would also try to learn how to fix
libsnesread in the meantime :)
