I am trying to get emulationstation to compile, but it errors out looking for the OPENGLES headers. How do I get these installed so the AUR package will compile:
– Detecting CXX compile features - done
CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-3.19/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:218 (message):
Could NOT find OpenGLES2 (missing: OPENGLES2_gl_LIBRARY)

GLES build notes
If your system doesn’t have a working GLESv2 implementation, the GLESv1 legacy renderer can be compiled in by adding -DUSE_GLES1=On to the build options.
Actually one needs to pay attention to the README in the link above concerning the pi4. As the PKGBUILD defaults using a 32 bit image where it is looking for the 32 bit libs not available on a 64 bit image so one needs to use the mesa libs in our repo.
if the Pi system uses the Mesa VC3/V3D GL driver, build using -DUSE_MESA_GLES=On to choose the MESA GLES implementation. This option is mandatory when compiling for a Pi4 system, since the legacy GL drivers are not supported anymore on this system.
So in the PKGBUILD add the line here:
cmake ..\
-DUSE_MESA_GLES=On \
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr \
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RELEASE
I was able to build the package here with this using the emulationstaion-git PKGBUILD from AUR.

Thank you for the responses. I have already compiled the non-git version and have compiled some of my libretro cores. I just wish there were Retropie bash scripts for Manjaro like there is for Raspbian. I have been working on this for two days now and still have not been able to start playing a game.
